Why Choose Matai Care 

Matai Care is here to make a difference in society by bringing attention to unspoken issues and breaking down barriers to create a more inclusive community for all. 

We are focused on the village model, embracing the motto “it takes a village.” This means that raising and nurturing children and young people who have been traumatised and abused by society is a communal effort. It involves the support, care, and wisdom of many people beyond just the immediate family. Therefore, we, as a community, help each child heal, grow, and thrive. 

We do this through:

  • Appreciation: Celebrate the unique strengths and contributions of each individual to foster a sense of belonging and respect.
  • Teamwork: Work collaboratively, pooling our resources and expertise to provide comprehensive support for every child.
  • Achievement: Set and celebrate milestones, helping children and young people reach their full potential and achieve their dreams.
  • Integrity: Uphold the highest standards of honesty and ethical behaviour to earn the trust of those we serve.
