Our Foundations

Our Vision

Our name inspires our vision – Tautokohia te Mana Tāngata – Kia Puta Kia Ora – which speaks to the role we play in supporting the dignity and mana of people so that they can be well and healthy.

Our
Pou
Supporting our vision is an unwavering commitment to our three Pou – these guide our mahi and are the lens through which we measure our success.

Māori Succeeding as Māori
Better outcomes for Māori tāngata whaiora, whānau and communities are achieved when Māori can exercise their tino rangatiratanga (self determination) and actively participate in their wellbeing journeys.
