Support with Housing – Where We're At
At this stage, Te Rūnanga o Ngāti Rēhia does not currently own or manage any housing. We understand the serious housing challenges many of our whānau are facing, and we are actively working to develop affordable homes for our people. However, our housing developments are still in progress and not yet available for public application.
While we cannot offer housing or housing support services at this time, we can provide information on where you may be able to get help.
