Disability workforce development
Te Pou believes in social justice, inclusion and building healthy communities.
Unfortunately, our funding from Whaikaha - Ministry of Disabled People finished at the end of 2024. The result is that Te Pou will no longer be providing training, resources and support to the disability sector.
Where possible, new homes have been found for the training and resources Te Pou has been part of developing over the past 15 years. Disability grants are no longer available.
Here is a list of the Te Pou workforce development programmes and their new home.
- Equitable Access to Wellbeing to People First
- Kia Noho Rangatira Ai Tātou to Disabled Persons Assembly
- Ātea Disability 101 to Blueprint for Learning
- Meaningful Mahi to Lisa Foster until a permanent home is found
- Autism and neurodiversity work including Te Tau Tītoki: A framework for supporting people on the autism spectrum to Altogether Autism.
Thank you to the new katiaki for providing a home to these important pieces of work and ensuring they remain available for the disability sector.
