Te Ora Hou Aotearoa Incorporated

Our purpose is to enable the local and autonomous Te Ora Hou Centres to advance our shared vision of Māori wellbeing for rangatahi, whānau and hapori across Aotearoa. We do this through actively supporting the collective charitable aspirations of the Te Ora Hou Network of Centres (its Members) by (a) nurturing and protecting our Mauri (our agreed values and distinctives) and TOHATOHA (our indigenous, specific approach to practice), and (b) helping the regional centres to align themselves with the general strategic direction of the Te Ora Hou Movement as determined by the Network itself. TOHA provides the Network of Centres with resources, project funding, training and support. TOHA facilitates and co-ordinates collaborative initiatives between the Network of Centres on a range of projects to ultimately benefit the rangatahi and whānau they work with at a grassroots level.
