The children of New Zealand are our treasures – Our Taonga
They need our love and protection.

What we do, our goal, and why we are unique

We are passionate about delivering quality therapeutic services for tamariki and
whãnau who have been impacted by trauma. We deliver quality care services, that
seek to keep siblings together through our whãnau style whare, so that tamariki can
be reunited with whãnau, or find their forever home.

We also have our therapeutic services providing support to tamariki and whãnau:
Child Centred Play Therapy, Whãnau Support, Mentoring and Supervised Access.
These services ensure we can provide wrap-around support to tamariki and whãnau,
to support whãnau as a whole to heal, break cycles and move toward the life they
have dreamt of.

Why support Homes of Hope?

We are only partially government funded. Without the generous support of our funders and donors, we wouldn’t be able to continue to make the difference we do in the lives of the tamariki and whãnau we are privileged to walk alongside.

Your one-off donation or regular donation will go towards ensuring we are able to provide the services we offer to tamariki and whãnau.

It was saving grace coming here… she (Homes of Hope kaimahi) didn’t make me feel stupid, I felt safe, protected, understood, and confident.

(Homes of Hope kaimahi) made sure we saw mum three times a week and would pick us up and drop her off… She always gave us updates and when we could next visit… now been back with Mum for just over a year… that wouldn’t have been possible without (Homes of Hope kaimahi).

I have found my voice. I was used to doing what he (ex-partner) wants – didn’t stand up for myself because it would end in a fight. Our children now have a voice. They can voice when they feel uncomfortable, they don’t yell as much, they learn from one another and self-regulate. They can now come to me with big emotions.

We provide safe, loving homes where brothers and sisters in care together can stay together.

We have already provided care and support for a number of children over the years, and there are still more children that need our help.

It takes a community to raise strong, healthy, independent children, and that is where your support can help.
