Going the extra mile to support Pacific mental health and wellbeing
Vaka Tautua’s frontline staff often go above and beyond to support the Pacific people who use our services. As part of the organisation’s Ola Fiafia mental health services, the Ora’anga team supports people living with mental illness, which sometimes means addressing the underlying issues causing distress.
Leaving island life and learning to thrive
In 2021, Miriam Terei-Roriki left Rarotonga for urgent medical treatment in Aotearoa. Vaka Tautua supported Miriam and her family to adjust to their new life, and learn to thrive with help from our Parenting and Tupe Wise Programmes.
