The latest Carers’ Strategy Action Plan is focused on improving the wellbeing of the one in 10 New Zealanders who care for a loved one with a disability, health condition, illness or injury.
Mahi Aroha includes a range of actions that we will help carry out with other government agencies and sector organisations over the next five years. These actions are focused on:
Recognising carers and their contributions;
Improving the way carers can navigate the support and services available to them;
Supporting the wellbeing of carers;
Helping carers who want to balance their caring role with paid work or study.
The Action Plan includes a new focus on target populations (Māori, Pacific, young and older carers) and a family, whānau, aiga-centred approach will form part of the implementation approach.
Mahi Aroha was developed in partnership with the New Zealand Carers’ Alliance and a cross-government agency working group. (From the website).
This document includes the Carers' Strategy launched in 2008 (from page 33).
Other background information and documents are available on the website. #7012
