Tuilaepa Youth Mentoring Services (TYMS) is a Pacific-led cultural and relationship-based intervention service that provides mentoring, advocacy and support for primarily Maori and Pacific youth, and their families.
Robson Tavita founded TYMS to address the need he saw in his community to support young people to get the education they needed to succeed. The "Tuilaepa" name is in honour of Robson's late father, Tuilaepa Ropisone Tavita, who dedicated this life to making sure his family grew up understanding the importance of honesty, integrity, loyalty and a good work ethic. These are the values that underpin all of our work that we do with our young people today.
