**About our group and team | Mātau rōpū ake**

Te Kahu Tōī Intensive Wraparound Service provides comprehensive, evidence-based interventions to support children/young people with challenging behaviour, socio-emotional difficulties and complex learning needs across a range of contexts. The team works collaboratively with children/young people, parents/caregivers and family/whānau, schools, agencies, and local communities to develop and implement comprehensive ecological wraparound plans.

The priority for these plans is for the child/youth to achieve success at home, school and in their local community. For information about the Intensive Wraparound Service please refer to Video case studies and outcomes of the Intensive Wraparound Service.

**Are you ready to make a difference? | Kua rite koe mō tēnei mahi?**

Using wraparound as an evidenced framework, you will change the everyday practice of families, teachers, and others that nurture tamariki. You will receive initial and ongoing training in wraparound practice, comprehensive practice support, supervision, and opportunities for professional development to continue to develop skills in relevant areas of expertise and interest.

Our colleagues tell us they value the following:

- _“The ability to make a positive difference in the lives of children, young people and their whānau and contribute to system wide change is a huge plus”_
- _“The Ministry offers a strong community of practice and support so I never feel isolated or alone”_
- _“I really value the ability to work closely with specialists from other disciplines. It enhances my own practice and thinking”._

We provide flexible working environments where everyone feels relevant, valued and supported. So, if working from home and/or having a flexible start and finish to the day will help with this, we can usually make it happen. We’d love to hear what this might look like for you, so feel free to outline this in your cover letter.

- We want our people to feel valued for their unique qualities and have a sense of belonging. If you require assistance or adjustments to fully participate in the recruitment process, please let us know._
