Introducing Our New Service: Mahana

April 1, 2021

Our brand new service, Mahana, was launched this month!
Mahana is a southern service providing counselling and support to individuals and whānau experiencing mild to moderate addictions and coexisting mental health issues.

In addition to counselling, Mahana facilitates a range of cultural wellbeing initiatives, delivered as experiential learning activities that focus on building cultural resilience, connections and inclusion.
