Dakota’s Story
At 14, Dakota was facing severe bullying at school and felt more alone than she ever had. In the early hours of one morning she found the Youth Focus website. Not long after, she caught a bus and two trains, then walked the rest of the way to her first appointment. From the moment she walked in, she felt accepted. Week after week, her psychologist Kate gave her a safe space to talk without judgement, and slowly Dakota began to imagine a future she hadn’t been able to see. Today, Dakota has completed a degree in psychology and philosophy.
Every kilometre you ride in the Hawaiian Ride for Youth (Virtual Edition) helps another young person take that first step, and gives them the chance to find out what their future can hold.
