We believe in building and supporting strong connections between young people, and their whānau, aiga, as well as their communities.  In all our programmes we base our evaluation and assessment of our model of practice the Maia which comprised of supporting four key developmental needs:

We believe that by supporting these four developmental needs in our young people they are assisted with transitioning into an adult community.  We work on a practical strengths based model and group work to help our young people with the skills required to function in a range of social settings (schools, home, peers, work and community).

Te Ora Hou seeks to grow with our local community and to implement programmes that respond to local needs and opportunities.  Our staff and volunteers are police vetted and are based in the communities where we work. We believe and invest in developing our leaders and volunteers.
