Stand Tū Māia is a charity providing an Intensive Wraparound social service response through it’s Stand for Children service (which includes Therapeutic Care and Education in Children’s Villages) to children aged 5 to 12 and their families, it’s Family Therapy service for children 0-18 (including unborns) and their families, the Social Services in Schools service and a Kidzacool Adventures holiday programme for children aged 5 up to 14.
We work to transform the lives of children and young people who are at significant risk of harm to their well-being as a consequence of the environment in which they are being raised and their own complex needs.
For each child we seek to develop their capacity to live in healthy, hopeful relationships with others. On this depends all of the other necessary outcomes which contribute to their ability to enjoy life and reach their potential.
