About The Organisation

Auckland City Mission - Te Tapui Atawhai supports Aucklanders in greatest need.

Our services have evolved as the city's social needs have changed, and we respond to these needs with care and compassion while advocating for a reality where there are : enough suitable homes, enough money for nutritious food, and easily accessible health care for all.

Since our doors opened more than 100 years ago, this has been our 'why'.

Today, we operate across 9 sites in Taamaki Makaurau.

We offer support for however long and in whatever way is needed – for some people, that's simply accessing one of our many services, for others, it's a complex journey with our full support.

Last year we were proud to win the Nga Ahuatanga o Te Tiriti Tohu (Award), and the Supreme Award at the 2023 Diversity Awards.

These awards recognise our mahi to create a workplace which empowers Maori, and where Maori solutions can be developed and offered to the people who we support.
