About Us

Kia Puāwai’s journey began in 1997.

Today, our therapists, practitioners, coaches and caregivers continue to make a significant difference in the lives of tamariki, rangatahi, whānau and their communities throughout Aotearoa – helping them grow, flourish and thrive.

Our Manawa

Our manawa, our heart flows through the fabric of our organisation, in our name, vision, kaupapa and tikanga. Waka hourua is the embedded expression of our manawa.

Waka Hourua is a metaphor that guides our strategic journey to integrate te ao Māori and te ao Tauiwi knowledge into all aspects of the way we work. The way we deliver our services for whānau, rangatahi and tamariki. The way we lead our organisational capability.
