Youth Transition Service
T J Taotua
Employment Facilitator
Two local personalities are taking Partners Porirua into secondary schools to build relationships with youth who are moving from school into further education or work.
Partners Porirua is delivering the Youth Transition Service, a programme designed to assist young people move from school to further education, training or work.
The team of T J Taotua (known locally for his success on New Zealand Idol) and Henry Samia are the personalities behind the programme working with young people.
Rose Flavall works behind the scenes to liaise with businesses and employers who believe that Porirua’s young people can add a new dimension to their businesses. Employers can work with young people over the short term or long term to provide mentoring, training or simply offering work experience to job seekers.
Reaching young people and potential employers to raise awareness of the issues surrounding youth unemployment is really important
