- together we will work on small achievable goals
- we encourage feedback so that we can continually improve our service delivery.
The Model we use is called Te Toi O Matariki which is known as an "Awakening" model. It works on the concept that in order to realise your need for change, one must understand who they are as individuals, then as Māori, then their cultural base.
Ownership of the way we behave is realigned with the traditional Māori philosophy of wellness.
