Funding support from Government was confirmed last week for the establishment of an all-in-one Youth Hub in Ōtepoti Dunedin for young people aged 10-25 years, to freely access help with:
• health issues,
• accessing temporary accommodation
• employment opportunities
• training and further education
• assistance to gain income support
• meeting new people
• enjoying arts and recreation activities

It will bring together a range of support organisations, both government and non-government, to work closely together in the same location to allow ease of access for young people in Otepoti. Some of these young people will be taking advantage of an 8 bed accommodation provision, where they could stay for up to 3 – 18 months, at an affordable rent, whilst finding employment and more long term housing.

Development Team Co-ordinator Deb Fraser-Komene, from Mirror Services, tells us more on this interview from the OARsome Morning Show:
