Community Talk with Matt Brown
16th Feb 2026

Join us for a powerful and inspiring Community Talk with Matt Brown, co‑founder of She Is Not Your Rehab and a leading voice for healing, healthy masculinity, and violence prevention. Audiences across Aotearoa have described Matt’s kōrero as life‑changing, powerful, and deeply inspiring - this is a conversation you won’t want to miss.
Our intention is that this event is a safe space to come, listen, and learn about these important conversations. Through honest storytelling and a trauma‑informed lens, Matt invites us to rethink old narratives, take responsibility, and build healthier relationships for the generations ahead. His kōrero touches on:
- Innovative approaches to preventing family violence
- The role of community in collective healing
- Overcoming shame and healing from trauma
- Redefining masculinity
- Engaging men in preventing intimate partner violence
- The journey from grassroots kaupapa to global movement
