  • A room for whānau hui’s, that has facilities to prepare and share a meal.
  • Commitment – We work in partnership with you so that this becomes a journey that we all work on together, with the whānau and young person at the centre.
  • Transport, to bring the six participants to our celebration activity and any other community activities (this is not essential).

WHAT WE OFFER:

  • We have intentionally made this a ‘no-frills’ program so that it is cost-effective, yet flexible for each community’s own style
  • The program is facilitated by the programs own accredited pool of facilitators.
  • We bring everything that is needed to run the program.
  • We provide ongoing training and support for all of the programs facilitators and mentors, as well as continuously bringing best practice to our work.
