WORKING IN THE COALFACE
The initiatives and developments outlined in this website demonstrates a significant opportunity for furthering development in communities particularly those which address, coordinate and facilitate whānau needs within our own organisation and its partners as well as the establishment of infra-structure and funding systems that enable more efficient approaches to the delivery of care to the wider community.
Combining industry best practices with technology and also some aspects of a whānau ora approach will lead to improved health, social and educational outcomes for Māori, Pacifica and the general population. It is recognised too that the same principles equally apply to other population groups as well.
Faith in Families Foundation has long recognised the need for organisations working in the coalface of local communities to provide a more efficient frame-work of provision of services in line with development and management of the workforce, and accordingly, with access to higher quality levels of technologies and tools.

Hey, this makes a lot of sense to me.
Exactly. Absolutely! This foundation is awesome.
Yes, it’s the best approach I’ve come across so far and believe it has the potential to turn things around in many good ways because it focuses on self-empowerment and not the dole which destroys people over the long run.
I think your Foundation’s approach towards developing communities is a solid one. Hoping that you get all the support you need to make this all happen soon.
I agree with your Foundation’s view that a more efficient framework of provision of services in line with development and management of the workforce in the charity sector is in order.
