An Introduction to Te Anua Nua Trust
Anua Nua (loosely translated) is the Cook Island word for Rainbow
The rainbow stands tall and proud, radiating light and a new promise to those who shelter under it.
People like Rainbows can reach great heights but sometimes they require support to be their best and acheive their full potential.
Te Anua Nua Trust endeavors to provide the appropriate support to assist people using our services to reach their full potential.

Service We Provide
Te nua Nua Trust provides long term residential accommodation for young person's and adults (16 years and over) with a primary diagnosis of Intellectual Disability and are not able to be supported in their own home.
Located in Manurewa, these homes give whaiora the opportiunity to live in a shared home, in the community environment. Whaiora engage in daily domestic living activities, go on social and educational outings, attend vocational centres and/or community based activities and/or go to work. Skilled kaiawhina/staff support the whairoa in each home so can live as individuals with a range of choices.
Community support workers are trained to assist our whaiora to engage with community networks, meet people, and explore a range of activities that will broaden their experiences and help them to set specific goals and achieve their desired outcomes. The community support worker team also assists our whaiora in accessing (and benefiting from) community cultural and behaviour support as well as vocational opportunities.
Dignity
We are committed to maintaining each individual's privacy, being fair and non-discriminatory of the whaiora who access services, their whanau/families and kaiawhina/staff. This is inclusive of:
- Respect for each whaiora/individual and their right to make decisions in regards to how they want to live their life and have their needs met;
- Respect for family/whanau, hapu, iwi and communities in which we operate;
- Respect for each person's culture and religion regardless of dissimilarity to our own culture and religion
- Respect for and regardless of one's individual, spiritual, psychological, personal health and quality of life needs, we strive to encourage personal self-evaluation as part of identifying each person's individuality.
