TOIORA WHĀNAU
WHĀNAU & COMMUNITY
Toiora Whānau has a range of health and social supports available to whānau. All our services are voluntary and embraces a Whānau Ora approach that sees whānau in the driver’s seat and leading the way towards positive outcomes for their whānau
Whānau Ora: Whānau Ora is embedded in a te ao Māori, whānau-centred holistic approach to wellbeing; focusing on the whole whānau (family group), as the decision-makers who determine their goals and aspirations.
Our team builds on the strengths and capabilities of whānau, wrapping services and support around them to achieve outcomes and create positive changes. We will walk alongside whānau to navigate pathways in areas such as health, education, employment, improved standards of living and cultural connections.
We offer a range of rangatahi, pāhake and kaumātua activities; adding to whānau kete through positive experiences, transferrable life skills, connection to te ao Māori, embracing and working with whānau towards reaching their full potential.
We also offer whānau ora primary care, which means we support whānau who have long term health conditions, which can be anything from heart problems, to gout, to diabetes, to cancer etc.
Whānau Resilience: Creating strong, resilient communities where whānau are supported to live violence free, creating a safer future for the next generations. Our kaimahi supports whānau through finding strategies to maintain safety and wellbeing while healing from experienced trauma.
Youth Justice Mentor: Supporting rangatahi and their whānau through the Youth Justice system.
