Kia Puāwai

Kia Puāwai provides a range of evidence-based and culturally informed services to support youth, whānau and communities.

Our journey began in 1997, and 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.

Kia Puāwai has the wellbeing of people at its heart, and our team are collectively focussed on a shared vision to help improve the lives of tamariki, rangatahi and whānau across Aotearoa.
