Youth Services Directory

Welcome | Nau mai, haere mai

At the Nelson Tasman Youth Workers Collective (NTYWC), we’re here to support the people and organisations who work with young people across our region. Since 1985, our goal has been to strengthen the youth sector by making it more connected, professional, vibrant, and equipped to guide rangatahi toward positive futures.

We offer:

  • Quality training and professional development

  • Opportunities to connect, share, and grow through sector-wide networking

  • Trusted information and navigation support to help young people access the services they need

Our services are free or low-cost, easy to access, and open to anyone working with rangatahi in the Nelson Tasman region.

"Together, we’re building a community that uplifts
and empowers youth - one connection at a time".

Youth service directory

We've created a directory of local and national agencies that offer services for young people, as well as organisations that support those working within the youth sector.

NTYWC Training and Events

Grow your skills, connect with others, and stay inspired. Our training and events calendar includes workshops, hui, and learning opportunities designed to strengthen youth work practice across the Nelson Tasman region.
