Families who've spent months and even years in emergency housing in Porirua are among those being assisted by a new job and skills hub in Cannons Creek.
Le Fale job and skills hub opened last month, established as part of the Porirua Development Project.
It's being run by the community services arm of Whānau Manaaki Kindergartens.
The hub is open to all with community navigators helping to connect people with training, advice, job opportunities and financial skills as well as practical things like childcare, the right clothes to wear or assistance with driver training.
Kathryn speaks with community services senior lead Caroline Mareko, and Le Fale community navigator, Fala Tavita.
