Manaaki Ora for Android – Latest Version & Features

This self-help wellbeing app is for Māori individuals and whānau to know what to do if they are concerned about someone’s mental or emotional wellbeing.
“He kokonga whare e kite, He kokonga ngākau e kore e kite.” “The corners of a house can be seen, however we cannot see the depths of the heart.” It is hard to know what someone else is thinking or going through mentally and emotionally.
