Over the past seven years, the Kimiora team have facilitated our Kimiora suicide prevention training in Kura Maori across the country. Supported by Te Puni Kokiri and He Waka Hourua, we have trained over 2500 rangatahi Maori. With this support, we have also taken rangatahi on wananga on our Awa Tupua, working in collaboration with Kii Tai and Te Taitimu Trust; where we hosted one of the biggest rangatahi suicide prevention wananga in the country.
Each school holidays, we continue to run wananga rangatahi focused on leadership, Te Reo and sustainability. We also facilitate training for trainers initiative for rangatahi to extend our Kimiora suicide prevention training.
Kiaora koutou, we really appreciated the training you shared with our whanau this year. Its helped us keep stronger, and helped us with tools to identify when someone in our whanau my be suicidal and needs our help.
