Stand Tū Māia

About this service

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. 

Why would I use this Service?

The daily focus of our work is to protect children from further trauma, support their recovery and enhance their wellbeing.  Three principles underpin our approach:

Harm caused by relationships is best healed by relationships.

That a child’s home and family, school and teachers, neighbourhood and friends all play a critical role in a child’s world and each system requires attention to improve a child’s quality of life.

Transformative environments that provide therapeutic relationships and experiences of belonging, mastery, independence and generosity are quicker and more effective for a child’s journey of recovery.
