Support, Encourage, Respect, Value and Empower.

Community Services Connect Trust (CSCT) exists to
strengthen communities across Aotearoa
New Zealand, through Support, Encouragement, Respect, Value and Empowerment.
We walk alongside whanau, hapu and iwi to create lasting
positive change for generations to come.
We provide a range of services that uplift individuals, strengthen whanau, and build resilient communities.

"We provide practical support to whānau in need — from kai and essential items to connection and manaakitanga. Our community support services are grounded in aroha, respect, and the belief that everyone deserves a helping hand."

"Stories have the power to heal, connect, and empower. Through our publishing arm, we amplify Māori and Indigenous voices — sharing our narratives with the world."

"He whare rākau, he whare kōrero."
"A house of wood, a house of stories."
"We believe a home holds the stories of those who live within it. Our housing kaupapa honours those stories, and creates space for new ones to grow."
A profound exploration of existence, nothingness and the infinite possibilities beyond.
