Accessibility & Brown

Village Collective is a warm and welcoming space to be in. It allows those attending sessions to relax and not feel as though they are in a sterile, hospital environment.

Professional but is Kind, Caring & Compassionate

Before we found Village Collective, we had sought help from other health and well-being providers for our daughter. However, these "Pākehā-led" institutions felt uncomfortable and dismissive of what our daughter was experiencing. From our very first meeting, they made both our daughter and us feel at ease. Our daughter was finally able to speak and be heard. They helped her find her voice, allowing her to express her thoughts, feelings, and emotions.

Safe space for our whānau

It was great to have someone who understand the context from which I come from. It's tricky when as a pasifika person, you see someone who is not pasifika and they don't understand the cultural context that I come from.
