We provide residential and vocational support to clients, known as tangata, as well as out of family respite care, caregiver support, high and complex needs support, and choices in community living.
With offices in Auckland (Tamaki Makarau), Whangarei (Taitokerau), Hamilton (Kirikiriroa), and the Christchurch (Otautahi), we are empowering tangata all over the country. As the largest kaupapa Maori Disability Support Service, our worldview encompasses everyone – we believe in caring for anyone with intellectual impairments or mental illness who needs support.

Whāriki! The essence of interweaving the supports for tāngata to live tino rangitiratanga.
The mission, Whāriki! The essence of interweaving the supports for tāngata to live tino rangitiratanga, is exactly what it states in that Te Roopu Taurima knows that it takes the interweaving of many to provide tika, pono and aroha when enabling good lives for the people it supports.
Tāngata Tū Tāngata Ora
Whānau Tū Whānau Ora
The vision, Tāngata Tū Tāngata Ora; Whānau Tū Whānau Ora, is a premise that Te Roopu Taurima will do all that it possibly can to ensure that the people it supports are centre to all of its services and their whānau are also centre to that support. The vision encompasses the Enabling Good Lives (EGL) principles.
Our strategy is built upon our core values, Ngā Mātāpono; together, these underpin everything we say and do at Te Roopu Taurima, individually and collectively.
Whānaungatanga – Engagement/Networking
Tika – Correct/Quality
Whakapono – Trust
Aroha – Kindness
Kia Mārama – Transparency
Rangatiratanga mō tātou kātoa i runga i ngā tikanga o tēnā o tēnā o tēnā
