Operated by Oasis Network Inc, Hillary Court in Naenae will see up to 15 single males at a time housed and provided with wraparound social services to help them get back on their feet. Oasis Network provide services to people who live or work in the Hutt Valley or the Wairarapa who self-identify as having experience of mental distress, illness and/or addictions.
They have been involved in the Hutt Valley for more than 25 years, making them exactly the type of organisation the Government wants to partner with to better deliver housing to those in most desperate need.
Oasis Network staff will work onsite to support the residents during their stay, and continue to assist them once they’ve transitioned into more independent, permanent living.This is part of the $354 million in new funding provided for emergency housing – which government intend will provide 8600 emergency housing places per year.
