Caring for the people: yesterday, today and tomorrow
Māori Wardens support whānau and communities in times of crisis; we train our tamariki and rangatahi; we provide emergency food and shelter and we support our people at tangihanga, ahurei, and major events.
Some examples of what we do
-
- Working with rangatahi and whānau in times of crisis, helping them access services, supporting their well-being, providing advice and guidance, and providing cultural leadership.
-
- Conducting community patrols in order to discourage and prevent negative behaviours, as well as supporting civil defence and emergency management.
-
- Supporting whānau, hapū and iwi at marae, tangihanga and hui.
