Practical support, advocacy, and community for tāngata whaikaha (disabled people), particularly from ethnic minority backgrounds.
Mainstream disability services in NZ are often (rightly) led by Pākehā-developed frameworks. For migrant and refugee families navigating disability for the first time in Aotearoa, or for ethnic minority disabled people, the system can feel completely foreign.
Our disability support sits at this intersection. Culturally informed, multilingual, practical.
Helping you access NASC services and understand what you're entitled to.
Standing alongside you at meetings with WINZ, ACC, MoH, schools, and providers.
Information and conversations in your home language.
Connecting families with others navigating similar disability journeys.
Helping you advocate for accommodations and inclusion in schools.
Help with workplace accommodations and disability-friendly job-seeking.
Whether you're disabled yourself, supporting a disabled whānau member, or just starting to figure out a new diagnosis, reach out.
