Ānei mātou o Te Pā
Our Mahi
Ko wai mātou?
As a kaupapa Māori organisation, Te Pā responds to community needs and vulnerable whānau. We have a substantial history working in the space of reintegration and social services and we pride ourselves on operating with a tangata and whānau centric service operating model which is reinforced with kaupapa Māori values.
Our driving philosophy is supporting tangata to lead their own change and to be the rangatira they were destined to be. We realise this by addressing the most difficult barriers, such as stigma, judgement, lack of resources and social exclusion, which prevent our tangata from reintegrating into their whānau, hapū, iwi, community and New Zealand society.
