Ko Wai Tou Ingoa Hauora

How We Create Change

We acknowledge the value of resources, such as our kaimahi, whānau we support and Stakeholders, and that we all are responsible for nurturing and valuing those resources. We appreciate that care needs to be delivered in the areas where our whānau live. That we maintain kaupapa Māori models of practice while working with whānau for best, measured outcomes for them.

‍
We appreciate the uniqueness of these resources. With it comes cultural values and beliefs that inspires us to respect and nurture that. And we consider it begins by improving the quality of life of whānau through barrier-free accessibility and communication.
The Trust is a social, health and community support service for the Ngāti Kahungunu region. It evolved from actions acquired by passionate and motivated people seeking to establish a more focused pathway to the delivery of such services to whānau.

The Hauora maintains inclusive networks and considers there to be (3) three whānau;

• Our partner providers we liaise with;
• Our whānau using our services;
• Our Stakeholders and funders.
  

Essentially, we implement frameworks that are Kaupapa Māori driven, yet flexible enough for all whānau, be it Māori, Pasifika or Tauiwi.
We are a Charitable organisation, led by a Governance Board, cultural advisor and Trust Deed.
