Hon Karen Chhour, Minister for Children and for the Prevention of Family Violence and Sexual Violence, recently visited Manna Home to meet with our team and find out in more detail how the service works.
During her visit the Minister also met with taiohi (young people) living at Manna and participating in the transition programme offered. The Minister noted how important services like Manna are to supporting taiohi at a critical moment of their life journey. The long-term impact of the transition programme at Manna Home is often life changing for taiohi and helps to set them on a pathway for a flourishing life.
We acknowledge the funding support of Oranga Tamariki alongside TOI Foundation and the Robert Gibson trust as well as the enormous generosity of the Manna Healing Centre Trust board and local community in helping us achieve outcomes for our taiohi.
