The 2026 ride will be second Hawaiian Ride for Youth, and I am super excited to be riding again this year.
Working as a Registered Nurse exclusively in the field of mental health for the last 20+ years I know firsthand the importance of early intervention early in life. I am very grateful that organisations like Youth Focus provide service to support the wider health system to provide evidence based psychological interventions for young people. I am drawn back to the ride to continue to raise awareness and much needed funds for their work to continue.
I encourage you to donate to this worthwhile cause.
