Services
CAP Life Skills
Many people and families in communities around New Zealand are restricted from full and vibrant lives simply from a lack of good financial literacy and essential life education. CAP Life Skills provides a fun and friendly community for people to belong, and receive the life skills they need to thrive on a low income.
Youthwork
24-7 Youthwork is a national organisation that facilitates partnerships between schools and churches to jointly fund part-time youth-workers in schools. SCT currently has two youth workers in Albany Junior High School who work alongside students to enhance personal well-being and promote heathy decision-making and life skills.
CAP Money
With nearly half of all Kiwis living without a budget, the CAP Money course is a fantastic tool that equips people with essential money management skills. At its core, the CAP Money course helps people put money in its rightful place in their lives—it gives a budget, a framework to live within, and sound principles that will help them wisely manage their money.
