Skip to content Psychology, Counselling & Social Work (Healthcare & Medical) Te Tiriti o Waitangi is the founding document which defines the relationship between Maori and the Crown in Aotearoa New Zealand.
It affirms both tangata whenua status of whanau, hapu, and iwi in Aotearoa New Zealand, and their rights to citizenship.
Te Tiriti o Waitangi provides a basis through which Maori may critically analyze relationships, challenge the status quo, and affirm Maori rights.
At Arowhenua Whanau Services our purpose is to ensure that the needs of Maori living in the Takiwa of Te Runanga o Arowhenua are responded to in an appropriate way by bringing whanau, hapu, iwi, and Maori community development into a relationship with health, social services and education provision.
Arowhenua Whanau Services provides free, accessible primary health and social service support to tangata whaiora, whanau, and hapori across the Aoraki rohe.
Our vision is to remove barriers where those with the least resources have as much as, or more, access to healthcare than those with the most.
We are a friendly, collaborative team who are committed to seeing whanau succeed in their aspiration of achieving positive health and wellbeing outcomes.
