Words from your Coordinator

Kia Ora! My name is Taylah, and I was born and raised in West Auckland here in Aotearoa. I spent a few years studying youth development in the United States where I obtained my Master’s degree and developed my passion for youth work. I have worked with young people for a few years in various environments, and I loved every minute of it! I had the pleasure of working in direct service prevention work with female identified youth aged 10-18, where I developed trauma informed skills and approaches to empowering young people. I also love sport and recreation, having the summer of a lifetime in the USA where I was a camp counsellor for an international summer camp!

At Raise Up Upper Harbour, we are youth led and strive to connect with the community through planning engaging events and workshops. Upper Harbour is an up-and-coming area, so a lot of what we do is building relationships and creating a fantastic crew! I encourage young people in the Upper Harbour area to apply and develop important skills that they can take into their adult life. Raise Up is a great way to meet new people, build confidence and add to your CV!
