About Poutini Waiora

 

Poutini Waiora are a kaupapa Māori organisation ensuring whānau are central to all decision making in order to support goals and aspirations under the umbrella of ‘whānau ora’.

Therefore the way in which services are delivered to whānau are based on Tikanga and underpinned by the values embedded in manaakitanga, whanaungatanga, rangatiratanga and wairuatanga.

Our main office is based in Hokitika, with two sub-offices – one in Mawhera and the other in Kawatiri. We also provide a disability day programme in Hokitika.
