The Youth One Stop Shop opened in 1994 in response to research in Palmerston North on the needs of young people. The strategic goals of the agency include:
- To provide a holistic service which includes support, counselling,information, advisory and referral services for young people in Palmerston North
- To foster, develop, deliver and facilitate programmes which empower young people
- To assist young people towards social, educational, emotional and physical well-being
The Youth One Stop Shop is currently an approved Social Service Provider by the Department of Child Youth and Family, Ministry of Health and receives funding from the Lottery Grants Board and the Palmerston North City Council. The Youth One Stop Shop is an Incorporated Society under the 1908 Act.
Our success over the last eighteen months have included the development of the skate park, the development of alcohol and drug services and our new youth health service.
The Youth One Stop Shop is active in networking locally, regionally and nationally and has representation on the Wellington Region Youth Worker Training Trust, New Zealand Association of Adolescent Health and Development and the local Lottery Community Committee.
