To foster, promote, facilitate and encourage the provision of social services for the community of Mid Canterbury, with a commitment to the principles of the Treaty of Waitangi.
To expand support services at Community House Mid Canterbury, for non profit organisations which promote community services for the people of Mid Canterbury, and to provide rental accommodation for them.
The Community House Mid Canterbury is building towards providing a "one stop shop" for local groups and/or individuals within Mid Canterbury to access information on the local welfare/social services which are available in our area.
We are endeavouring to achieve this by providing a local, centralized base where information can be collated, stored and made readily accessible to the public.
We utilize our central location to provide accommodation and basic administrative services to other social service providers. These administrative services are resources that can be fully utilized by sharing them among other social service agencies and volunteer support groups working around Mid Canterbury.
Our cost effective services allow community groups to concentrate on providing services to the community rather than spending a significant portion of their funding on administration.
