Been There: Young people's stories of struggle and hope - an update
This book is a collection of stories from 25 New Zealand young people, who have written about a crisis or struggle and what has given them the hope to endure and to pull through.
Our editor caught up with some of the contributors - a year on from publishing - to find out what they have been up to.

Keep reading Judy' reflection on leading for systems change.
