What is Hāpai?
Hāpai is a new initiative providing kiritaki Māori and your whānau with options in your recovery support experience.
Our vision for Hāpai is to improve access, experience and outcomes for kiritaki Māori.
Hāpai is delivered by our kaihāpai (recovery team members) and is grounded in tikanga Māori (Māori values and practices).
This means te ao Māori principles inform the way we engage with you and your whānau, to ensure you receive support when you need it, and in ways that work for you.
