We have over 100 staff across a range of disciplines, roles and responsibilities, who deliver a wide range of health care and social services from MÄngere to Papakura.
We are the lead provider for the Kotahitanga Whānau Ora Collective which includes Te Kaha o te Rangatahi and Papakura Marae.
For Kotahitanga, Whānau Ora is about the overall wellbeing of Whānau, which includes protecting the Mana of Whakapapa. Accordingly, we believe that all Whānau should have every opportunity to:
Fulfill their potential
Achieve their aspirations
Model intergenerational success
