The trust is supported through rental income, grants, philanthropic trusts and Te Whatu Ora. CORT operates in Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland. The Trust manages over 470 properties, mainly 1 and 2 bedroom apartments.

Referral Process

If you are looking to live independently, give us a call or get your Key Worker or Community Worker to contact us.

You will need to be on the Public Housing Register, which means making an application to Work and Income for housing as well.
