About Us
Intergenerational change
For over 34 years, Wai Ora has been dedicated to empowering whānau to reach their full potential through social services, training, and employment preparation, all within a supportive Christian and kaupapa Māori framework.
We uphold positive family values and honor the dignity of each person, recognizing that every individual has something valuable to contribute to their community.
