“Brett has run a number of staff trainings and the information he provides is invaluable for professionals, clients and parents alike. The subject matter is entirely relevant in the current landscape and the quality, accurate and vital information Brett and his team are able to impart is absolutely necessary.”
— Jo Bader - Reg. Social Worker, Aviva Sexual Violence Team
“We recently had the pleasure of Brett’s experience when he hosted a workshop for our volunteers. Brett held and delivered this sensitive topic carefully. Sharing his own lived experience and highlighting some informative yet shocking statistics about the world our young people are engaged in. Brett’s insight and easy to use tips, helped our volunteers who are matched with vulnerable taiohi aged 6 through to 18, to build their collective awareness, understanding and knowledge should our taiohi ever need a friendly listening ear.”
— Faye Higgins - Kaiwhakahaere (Manager) BBBS Christchurch
“We were fortunate to host Brett Harvey from Taima Korero, who delivered three powerful workshops in Horowhenua - one for teachers, one for our network of social workers and frontline agencies addressing family harm, and one for the wider community.
He approached a difficult subject with compassion and empathy. While the statistics were confronting, participants left feeling hopeful, inspired, and better equipped to support our rangatahi. The feedback was overwhelmingly positive - full of gratitude and admiration."
-Nicole Deans - Horowhenua Abuse Liaison Team
“The workshop content has high relevance to our work. Our team greatly appreciated the research-based information as well as your warm and engaging presentation style”
