Our services address practical and physical needs, addictions, mental health and behavioural problems, reintegration following release from prison, life skills and housing. Our guests can be some of the most vulnerable adults in New Zealand who have witnessed and/or experienced horrific trauma and therefore they struggle to find their ‘fit’ in a society that does not make sense to them.
Social Work
Our social workers provide practical and therapeutic support, helping our guests understand their challenges in a gentle and supportive way. If needed, they guide guests in accessing additional services. Through a comprehensive assessment, social workers help guests create a personal narrative, identify their hopes and goals, and map a path to achieve them.
Mental Health and well-being/addictions
Our Mental Health recovery and support facilitator serves as a vital link for our guests to access mental health services. They play a pivotal role in obtaining the necessary support for our guests when needed, ensuring they have access to the resources essential for their recovery journey.
Kaiarahi - to assist with whaanau and Te Ao Maaori linkages
As kaiarahi, we focus on renewing the core connections of wairua, whaanau, and whenua. We help re-establish family ties, build new community connections, and guide understanding of Te Reo Maaori. Our role also includes fostering connections to Te Ao Maaori and the land.
Support Worker
We have 24/7 support available for our guests. Our support workers are a first point of contact within our service and are there to provide a listening ear and/or company.
Housing Navigator
Following entry to our accommodation, our Housing Navigator will complete an assessment which will help ascertain what the barriers are to finding and maintaining a stable home. They will then work with the guests to help attend to those barriers and facilitate the process of securing sustainable housing.
