Foster Care

Kokiri Marae has been a Level 1 Child & Family Support Service under the Children, Young Persons & Their Families Act 1989 since 1993  and provides placement with Māori whānau for Māori tamariki removed from their homes by the Child Youth & Family Service.

Only social workers from the Department of Child Youth & Family can make referrals to this service.

Kokiri Marae utilises a pool of whānau caregivers who make their homes available to care for the tamariki removed by Child Youth & Family.  The care of tamariki placed in the caregiver’s home is a whānau position involving the whole whānau who are supported in their role by Kokiri Marae.

Would you like to be a caregiver?  If so, contact Diane Ruru on 04 9394630 for more information.
