About MSD
The Ministry of Social Development is a people-centred organisation. We're in communities across the motu, working with partners to help New Zealanders be safe, strong and independent.
We provide social policy and advice to government and assistance, including income, employment and housing support to people of all ages, families, whānau and communities.
As a Te Tiriti o Waitangi partner we are committed to supporting and enabling Māori, whānau, hapū, Iwi and communities to realise their own potential and aspirations.
Our people are as diverse as the communities we serve. We care about the wellbeing and success of our people and provide a supportive and inclusive working environment where people can thrive and be who they are.
Te āhua o Te Kāhui Kāhu | about Te Kāhui Kāhu
E ngā parirau amokura e ngā parirau atawhai, ko te reo karanga tēnei o ngā parirau o Te Kāhui Kāhu e karanga nei e mihi nei. Tēnā koutou katoa.
Te Kāhui Kāhu is a unit of approximately 85 people hosted by the Ministry of Social Development.
Our purpose is to help make sure social services are safe for New Zealanders to use.
Our main role is to accredit social service providers on behalf of six government agencies that fund a range of social services across the motu. The six agencies share the cost of accreditation between them, and a representative from each agency comprises our advisory board.
We assess providers against a suite of accreditation standards relevant to the services they are delivering. This provides assurance to government, communities and service users, and helps providers to succeed. We want New Zealanders to be confident to use social services that help them live the lives they choose.
We work with providers that deliver a wide range of services such as care for children, family violence support services, reintegration and out-of-school care and recreation programmes. Our assessor team is supported by a national office team including senior analysts and advisers.
We do interesting work that makes a difference, and we have an exciting work programme planned for the next three years.
Our people are diverse, and we care about each other and the work we do. We offer a supportive and inclusive working environment where our people thrive. Come and join us
