If you want to support whanau in developing their own solutions, then you should consider volunteering to deliver Whanau Centred Services through the Ngati Porou Hapu Social Services. 
You will work with whanau to minimise harm to children, and reduce the need for intervention from external services such as Police and Oranga Tamariki. 
You will receive appropriate training to support your natural empathy for working with our whanau. 
For more information contact Josie at Te Runanganui o Ngati Porou’s Ruatoria office or your Hapu Social Services representative. You are invited to attend our information day on Thursday, 22nd March at 1.00pm at Kariaka Pa 
Awhina tetahi ki tetahi – let’s be our own solution
