Tamaiti Healthy Homes

Te Puawaitanga ki Ōtautahi Trust and Tangata Atumotu Trust provide the Tamaiti Healthy Homes service for low income aiga/whānau who live in cold, damp and unhealthy homes. The service includes a comprehensive housing assessment and an individualised action plan to create a warmer, drier, healthier home.

Criteria

We are a free service, and we take a comprehensive approach to housing. We support whānau where a home is making children sick by improving how people live in the home or if required supporting them to try to find another home.

We make a whānau plan with our families - what is important to them and support them to make changes to improve the health of their home.

What do we do?

We have both Māori and Pasifika assessors, though our service is for everyone.

When our kaiarotake/assessors undertake a visit, they look at everything from house quality, bedding, heating as well as providing education and advocacy for the family with landlords etc.

Solving housing issues is complex, it isn’t always a quick fix. We look for support from a range of areas through our housing and intervention networks to assist where we can to improve the housing quality.
