Becoming a safe parent
Letechia’s two older children were uplifted following a drug overdose. She stayed clean for five months and almost had her children back home with her, but she relapsed. Pregnant again, she knew that unless she got help with her addiction and parenting, she would not be able to keep her new baby or have her other children return.

Letechia
A mum who rose above her past to become a safe parent.
Letechia had just come out of drug rehab and was looking forward to the birth of her third child. However, Child, Youth and Family referred her to Iosis’s Merivale Whanau Development Centre for help with her parenting skills.

She graduated from Merivale confident in her ability to build strong relationships with all her children, including her older two who will be returned to her care.
