In this section
Assessing and approving caregivers and adoptive applicants

We need to build engagement and trust with people wanting to care for tamariki and support them through assessment and approval.

We provide expectant parents with profiles prepared by adoptive applicants who match their preferences and their wishes for their tamaiti, and who have been assessed as able to meet the needs of the specific tamaiti.
