Our Story
SADD/Kaitiaki o Ara exists to empower young Kiwis/rangatahi to prevent loss on our roads. We empower young road users, including drivers, pedestrians, and cyclists, to make good decisions and develop personal strategies to be safe on our roads.
We care about the wellbeing of our communities, our programme supports youth to influence attitudes and behaviours and inspire their peers to make safer choices on our roads, helping to create a road safety culture.
SADD/Kaitiaki o Ara provides a diverse platform for collective youth voice that constantly adapts to provide tailored support and resources to groups across Aotearoa. Young people are the heart of the programme and are the key influencers of behaviour change for all road users.
