Whānau Direct
This fund is available to assist our whānau to access financial recourses when it matters the most to whānau—with the intention of making a positive difference for whānau.
This fund is about helping whānau to achieve positive outcomes such as becoming self-managing, living healthy lifestyles and being financially secure.
Whiria nga Hua
We have launched a new programme that helps new whānau set themselves up for long term success and achieve their dreams. The innovative course has been designed to provide whānau with the information, knowledge, support, and tools to create the future they dream of.
Resourcing
Our Whānau Ora team works with other services across our organisation including Rehua Medical, Rangatahi Hub, Oranga Tamariki, Driving Academy and so forth to ensure the whānau is receiving all the services they require.
Waka Manaaki

Our Waka Manaaki Van is mobility-friendly, and available for those who have physical mobility needs that are needing to access any medical services including Doctors and Nurse visits, specialist appointments and hospital visits in Mataatua.
