Accommodation:
Support is provided within group homes. The level of support depends on the needs and wishes of each individual. Placement decisions are made with the full involvement of the individuals themselves.

We have houses in Henderson (deaf and younger people) as well as houses (and a farm house) in Helensville. For the Mt. Tabor community, each of our houses is a home. People living in our homes take as much responsibility as possible for what happens there.

 

Deaf Day Programme:
Mt Tabor has set up a functional deaf plus resource centre which will be open to other deaf plus service users to address the visual communication needs of those who are deaf and have other disabilities.

The resource centre will be set up as a unique / creative environment where those who have had little access to education can come and develop skills. We focus largely on life skills education, social skills, cooking skills, transport, communication skills, sexuality education, transport, technology etc.
