Engaging Māori whānau

This report describes the development, implementation and evaluation of a parenting programme that was developed as part of a wider tobacco reduction intervention, He Arorangi Whakamua.

In 2006 Whakauae Research Services (the research arm of Ngäti Hauiti) was successful in obtaining funding from the Families Commission to run and evaluate a parenting programme with He Arorangi Whakamua participants.

This report was produced for the Families Commission Innovative Practice by Heather Gifford and Gill Pirikahu.
