CARING ADULTS: 24/7 house parents and Te Ora Hou staff who assist young parents for independent living through developing life skills e.g. budgeting, cooking, shopping, managing relationships and having a healthy lifestyle.

This could include finding a midwife, enrolling with a GP, accessing well-child/tamariki ora services, enrolling in school/early learning opportunities, engaging in activities that build confidence and self-esteem, develop parenting knowledge and skills, and accessing work and income.
