Matariki is a great time for renewal as Te Amaru—Disability Services becomes part of the exciting new Student Equity and Wellbeing Portfolio. We will continue to provide you with quality services and support, you'll just see us working more closely with the Manawa Ora—Student Wellbeing, and Kahukura—Rainbow Inclusion services.

We've started by combining social media channels. We'd love you to like our new Student Equity & Wellbeing, Victoria University of Wellington page as we'll be closing this page and posting disability content there from now on.

We're also looking for another social worker to join our team as a disability and inclusion adviser so if you know any who are great at case management, organisation and working with disabled people, send them our way: https://www.aplitrak.com/?adid=ZWp1ZGQuNzA0NjQuMTAxM0B2dXduei5hcGxpdHJhay5jb20
