Our Whānau
We work with the most at-risk and vulnerable whānau in South Auckland, the Far North and beyond through our programmes and mobile one-day courses. These families have often tried multiple courses before being referred to us.
Our Impact
Our programmes are tailored to address the challenges our community face including depression, drug and alcohol abuse, domestic violence, suicide, sexual abuse, and family breakdown, so that tamariki are given every opportunity to reach their full potential.
