Our Partnerships
Working together makes us stronger
At Te Kāika, we've partnered with local rūnanga, community organisations, and government agencies to help families across Otago.
The success of Te Kāika is built on extensive collaboration with various stakeholders, including Oranga Tamariki, the Ministry of Social Development, and Te Whatu Ora.
Through regular cross-agency meetings, we share insights, discuss referrals, and strategise tailored interventions that meet the unique needs of mokopuna and their whānau. This coordinated effort ensures that every individual receives timely support, fostering a seamless integration of services.
