Hapori Ora:
Social Work Team

Hapori Ora i Te Ora Hou Ōtautahi is led by a team of qualified and experienced kaimahi, providing comprehensive support for all community and social work referrals. We work closely with whānau and rangatahi to offer the right care and guidance tailored to their needs.

24/7 Support

Our Social and Community Work services include:

​

  • Whakawhanaungatanga – Ongoing support for whānau and rangatahi involved in Te Ora Hou’s various programmes.

  • Whānau Ora – A collective approach to empowering and strengthening families.

  • NEET Support – Helping rangatahi Māori who are not in education, employment, or training to find pathways forward.

  • Transitions Support – Guiding rangatahi as they age out of Oranga Tamariki care and transition into adulthood.

  • Mangōpare - A Community Initiative dedicated to Health and overall Hauora.

While we strive to address as many needs as possible within Te Ora Hou, we understand that sometimes external expertise is required. We’ve built strong partnerships with trusted organisations to ensure that whānau and rangatahi receive the right support when we’re unable to provide it in-house.
