Supporting whānau whakapuāwai
Supporting people to flourish
Guided by our kaupapa Māori framework Tāiki and the five principles of Housing First, we walk alongside whānau so they can access appropriate housing and wrap-around services. People experiencing homelessness can face complex challenges, including mental health, substance use, disconnection to whānau and whenua, and trauma. To whakapuāwai (flourish), whānau must first have a home.

Our Collective
We are a collective of five non-government organisations our Housing First providers are Auckland City Mission, Lifewise, LinkPeople, and Visionwest with backbone support provided by the Wise Group. Working together strengthens our ability to walk alongside whānau to sustain their tenancies and reach their goals.
Housing First Auckland is made possible through funding from the Ministry of Housing and Urban Development.
