Whare Support
At He Herenga Kura, we know that a safe, secure home is the foundation for wellbeing and opportunity. That's why our Whare Support services are designed to support whānau into stable, warm and healthy housing - no matter whether you're in an emergency or in need of a long-term home.
From tenancy services that ensure whānau are supported into and throughout their homes, to property management that keeps everything running smoothly, and property maintenance that ensures homes are safe, healthy and cared for - we provide a full spectrum of housing support.
Our goal is simple - to create stable, sustainable housing that enables whānau to thrive.
