Take - Our Impact

Our Impact

Our participants say it best.

There’s something deeply spiritual about our class — maybe it’s the diversity of heritage and faith, or the self-imposed tikanga we hold ourselves and each other accountable to. Whatever it is, you can’t deny the sincerity and mana of everyone involved with Take2.

Take 2 really feels like a second chance at life and has been a healing experience for me. I feel happy, confident and can see a bright and better future for myself and my family.

Learning isn’t a one-way road in Take2; it’s an open road between teachers and students that allows both to learn and grow together. This concept has profoundly accelerated my growth and development.

Take2 is a very exciting prospect for New Zealand, and I'm proud to be an ambassador furthering its mission. I’m strongly pro-rehabilitation and reintegration — not only for those wrongly convicted, but also for those rightfully so. Unfortunately, some of our most vulnerable people end up in our criminal justice system. Sometimes all it takes is someone giving us a second chance.
