Te Waharoa
Our programmes are developed from the needs of the whaiora and are whānau focused, creating a sense of belonging. These programmes tell a story of overcoming intergenerational trauma and moving forward.
Through creativity, participants regulate emotions and reclaim lost tikanga and traditional practices, instilling a sense of accomplishment and pride.
