We are looking for a Registered Social Worker with strong leadership experience, a passion for supporting rangatahi, and a commitment to achieving positive outcomes for young people and their whānau.

Vibe is here for all rangatahi. 🧡

We stand firmly against the “Definition of Woman” Bill and any attempts to erase or invalidate trans people and their identities.

Everyone deserves to feel safe, respected, and able to be fully themselves.

Stand with us and take action!

Happy Samoan Language Week

This year’s theme:
“ 'E afua mai i mauga tetele manuia o le nu’u”
(From the high mountains come the blessings of the village)

This speaks to the heart of what we do.
Our “mountains” are the people and spaces that uplift our young people
🏔️ families and communities
🏫 schools and mentors
🤝 youth spaces where rangatahi feel safe and seen

These are the foundations that shape wellbeing — physically, mentally, and culturally. We know that when young people are connected to their identity, their culture, and their village, they thrive

This vaiaso, we celebrate:
💬 language as expressions of identity
💙 culture as strength
🌿 community as wellbeing

Practise some of the samoan words and phrases when you come in to see us this week!

We asked some of our tupulaga (young people) why they keep coming back to Tokelau Connect

It’s clear that expression of culture and connection to people is valued.

2026, here we come!

Some young people are carrying way more than they should have to. 💭

Looking after family. Showing up for everyone. Holding it together.
And still being expected to just “cope”.

The “More Than A Burden” study wants to hear from YOU. 🫵

Your story could help create real change for young people everywhere.
