Welcome to Korowai Tumanako

Igniting Courage, Inspiring Hope

​

​

Our Mission

At Korowai Tumanako, we are dedicated to empowering iwi, hapū, and whānau affected by sexual violence. As a kaupapa Māori organization, we believe that preventing sexual abuse in all communities is not only possible but a shared responsibility.

​

 

What We Do

We engage closely with community leaders and families to weave practical sexual violence prevention strategies into the fabric of daily life. Our comprehensive services include:

​

• Education and Support: Tailored sexual violence prevention education for whānau and communities, fostering understanding and resilience.

• Therapeutic Supervision: Training and support for local professionals and support workers, enhancing their capacity to help others.

• Clinical Treatment: Expert clinical support for young people and adults who have exhibited harmful sexual behavior, focused on healing and transformation.

​

​

Our Approach

Grounded in the principles of whanaungatanga (kinship), manaakitanga (hospitality and care), and tikanga Māori (customs and practices), our unique clinical practice combines cultural wisdom with clinical expertise. We prioritize culturally responsive methods that address the specific needs of Māori communities while extending our services to all who are impacted by sexual violence.
