Open Home Foundation

Nestled in the heart of Wellington, Open Home Foundation stands as a beacon of hope and compassion for those seeking support within our community. Since our inception, we've dedicated ourselves to providing welfare services that genuinely make a difference in people's lives. Our passion is rooted in empowering families, particularly those navigating challenging circumstances. We understand that every family's story is unique, and so are the services we offer. Whether you're an OT caregiver or a kin carer needing assistance, our team of dedicated social workers is ready to walk with you on your journey. We provide support tailored to your needs, from safety planning services to fostering environments that lead to the reunification of children with their whānau (extended family). Our work doesn't stop at families; we also extend our services to those with disabled children. Our social work services are designed to ensure these families have the support they need to navigate the complexities of life with grace and resilience. At Open Home Foundation, we believe that every child deserves a safe and loving home. To this end, we offer services aimed at preventing children from entering care and ensuring their wellbeing when it's necessary for them to be in our care. We also provide supervised contact services that prioritize the emotional safety and well-being of all parties involved. In every interaction, our commitment remains unwavering: to treat each person with dignity and respect while providing the support they need to overcome adversity and build a brighter future. Open Home Foundation is more than just an organisation; we are a family that walks alongside you in times of need, offering hope, care, and a helping hand. Join us as we strive to make Wellington a city where every family thrives.
