Citizens Advice Bureau Kapiti Incorporated

The aims of the Bureau are: • To ensure that individuals do not suffer through ignorance of their rights and responsibilities, or of the services available; or through an inability to express their needs effectively. Me noho matāra kia kaua te tangata e mate i tāna kore mōhio ki ngā āhuatanga e āhei atu ana ia, ki ngā mahi rānei e tika ana kia mahia e ia, ki ngā ratonga rānei e āhei atu ana ia; i te kore rānei āna e āhei ki te whakaputu i āna hiahia kia mārama mai ai te tangata. • To exert a responsible influence on the development of social policies and services, both locally and nationally. Kia tino whawāhi atu ki te auahatanga o ngā kaupapa-ā-iwi me ngā ratonga-ā- rohe, puta noa hoki i te motu. The Bureau therefore provides free to all individuals an impartial and confidential service of information, guidance and support, and makes responsible use of the experience so gained.
