Kaupapa Māori mental health and addictions support across Kirikiriroa and Whangārei

Every Tū Whānau deserves to live a good life in a community of their choosing. Since 1994, Te Awhi has helped make that possible through kaupapa Māori mental health and addictions support across Kirikiriroa and Te Tai Tokerau. 

From times of crisis to everyday life in the community, we walk alongside whānau with belief in their strength, because whānau are their own greatest resource.
