The best resources are informed by many – and we ensured that the voices of a diverse range of New Zealand rangatahi were front and centre in the development of In The Know. Young people told us the issues they wanted help with and what type of help was useful – then worked alongside our team on the content, reviewing it with other rangatahi.  We also teamed up with ‘the pros’ – a wide range of youth health professionals who provided their expertise and oversight. We are deeply grateful to these rangatahi and colleagues, and would like to acknowledge:

Debbi Tohill and the educators at RPE, Family Planning, Cathy Stephenson – Victoria University Student Health, Ezekiel Raui and Sydney Batters, Henry Talbot and The Classification Office, OUTline, Village Collective, Homecare Medical, Auckland City Police, Kathy Lowe – ADHB, Safe Network, Dilworth School Guidance Team, St Peters School, Te Rau Ora, Dilworth Year 13 boys, Safe to Talk, Wordi press, JacknLivi, and all the rangatahi that so generously participated in our scoping survey and focus groups.     

The site was supported by the Ministry of Social Development and Spark Foundation and contributes to the current conversation on young people and porn in Aotearoa alongside the great work of the CLASSIFICATION OFFICE.
