Nikita Dobson, 17, entered the Supported Youth Living House in January. She was shy, quiet and timid. But, being in the house has taught her independence and she is thriving in education, physically healthier, and her state of wellbeing has improved.
She has almost completed NCEA Level 2 and a hospitality course. She doesn't know where she would have been if it wasn't for the house and describes it as a life-saver. CEO Tracey Wright-Tawha says the house has been a success. It is based on family values and run as a family dynamic with great ground rules, clear responsibilities and exceptionally good supervision, seven days a week. The non-contracted service has been essential in supporting improved well being for the 19 young people referred to date.
