Our vision and purpose
About Plunket(https://www.plunket.org.nz/about-plunket/)
Our vision and purpose
Tamariki and wh ā nau are at the heart of everything we do at Whānau Āwhina Plunket. W e're dedicated to helping all children in Aotearoa New Zealand have the best possible start to life.
Our vision
Strong communities.
Confident whānau.
Thriving children.
Our vision is our enduring commitment to whānau today and whānau of the future. It shows how strong communities, confident whānau and thriving children are intertwined and cannot be viewed in isolation.
Our purpose
We work alongside whānau in their communities supporting the growth, development and wellbeing of children under five.
Together, our vision and purpose articulate what drives and unites us - our 'why'.
Our commitments and our goals
Our commitments and our goals support our vision and purpose. We know that when whānau feel supported, respected and empowered, children are more likely to thrive. That’s why we have put whānau insights at the centre of our decision-making, shaping our goals and actions.
Our commitments define who we are and how we operate as an organisation:
Use our trusted expertise to lead and strengthen child wellbeing in the early years
Embed equity and Te Tiriti o Waitangi in everything we do
Amplify whānau voices and community context to shape services and systems
Create strong foundations for whānau of today and whānau of the future.
Our five-year goals set the direction for the impact we want to achieve for whānau over the next five years. They guide our focus and shape what we do:
Whānau have choices in the support and services they receive, and experience services that are connected, easy to navigate, and tailored to their needs
Whānau are supported and empowered by trusted, relevant advice, and practical support
Whānau feel respected through inclusive, culturally responsive care.
