Kick Back jobs and careers

About Kick Back

Kick Back is a #YouthDevelopment and #SocialJustice org innovating for change and kicking back against the idea that any YP is to at risk to love! We are kicking back against the idea that any young person belongs in the too hard basket. In fact, we don’t even think the thing exists. We’re a Youth Development and Social Justice movement innovating for change and kicking back against the status quo. Our mission? To do our part in the fight to end the injustice of homelessness that is facing our rangatahi! You see, we have this crazy idea that no young person is too “at-risk” to Love. That Love takes risks. That healing, transformation, change, it happens when we have the courage to step into solidarity with one another. That Love goes further, it seeks out the forgotten places, the rejected spaces, it goes to those whom society has chosen to ignore. Those who have been marginalised by the systems and structures we’ve designed to serve the majority. That Love seeks out the margins, sets camp in the gaps, refusing to accept the unacceptable within society. And youth homelessness is unacceptable. No young person should ever experience homelessness within Aotearoa. No child should be without a home. No rangatahi should be on our streets.
