We're an independent charitable trust that provides support for children, young people and adults with disabilities and their whanau.
We offer a wide array of personalised and flexible support options for people of all ages and stages in the Northland, Auckland, Waikato, Bay of Plenty and Wellington regions.
This includes 24-hour residential support, a variety of flexible respite support options, and specialised Home support, Transitions support and Aspirations support.

Our independent living support is specifically focused on empowering people to their lives of choice - lives like any other - in the community, and our person-focused, person-directed Business Enterprises programme aims to support people towards their employment goals.
