Rangatahi Ora is a wellbeing and preventative after school programme for tamariki aged from 7 to 11 years old. The intent is to provide tamariki with a rich, positive and engaging experience through the delivery of fun and collaborative activities. Amatanga is important because it enables THO to build relationships with the wider whānau so if they need support, THO can assist before the issues become too great. THO is in the process of expanding this programme to provide for tamariki aged 12 to 14 and rangatahi aged 15 to 17. There is also the opportunity to provide holiday programmes to better support whānau. A key aspect of Amatanga is role modelling for tamariki and rangatahi. Amatanga is also an environment where wider issues are identified. When this happens, other THO services are engaged to support the tamariki, rangatahi and their whānau. This can include overcoming crises or helping parents keep their tamariki in school. Tūrangawaewae - is a whānau led Te Ao Māori programme that helps people build healthy whānau relationships. It creates a sense of belonging by connecting people to their identity by grounding them in Te Taiao. Tūrangawaewae helps whānau to create a korowai around themselves to live with confidence, calmness, self worth, belonging and contentment. The idea of this is that a positive foundation helps to foster healthy tamariki and this will reduce the likelihood of them developing serious issues as they get older. This knowledge and kaupapa is rooted in the whakapapa of the tupuna and whenua of the people. Kaimahi see it as their duty to pass this on to the next generation as their tūpuna did before them. Mauri Mahi, Mauri Ora is a new initiative designed by Te Hou Ora (THO) to meet the needs of rangatahi aged 15 - 24yrs that is scheduled to begin mid-2023. This programme aims to reduce rates of long-term unemployment among our rangatahi and involve wide-reaching external collaboration and internal integration of services. Rangatahi will be supported by kaimahi across our other THO services including social work, counselling, education and learning development, whānau work, navigation and youth work. Rangatahi will develop the hard and soft skills necessary to obtain long term employment and career progression in a field that interests them. Through Mauri Mahi, Mauri Ora and a korowai comprised of additional support services wrapped around them, THO expects Mauri Mahi, Mauri Ora will help rangatahi become positive, resilient, independent and successful in all aspects of their lives. Transitional Services - THO’s Transitions service provides advice and assistance to rangatahi who have left Oranga Tamariki care or custody and who are aged from 15 to 25 years old. The focus of this service is helping rangatahi become independent and capable of standing on their own two feet. The approach is individualised, case-by-case and responsive to their changing needs, particularly when they are in crisis. The relationship between rangatahi and kaimahi is trusted and THO is Oranga Tamariki’s preferred Transitional service. There is though a limitation to how much support can be provided. The staff numbers are minimal and the rangatahi numbers are high. In spite of this though, THO has guided a number of rangatahi to training, education and employment.
