Culturally and Linguistically Diverse Health
The award-winning, statewide Good Start Program works on improving the health and wellbeing of Maori and Pacific Islander children and their families. The program aims to lower the levels of chronic disease and obesity by working with families to build their knowledge, skills and confidence about healthy eating, physical activity and lifestyle practices.
The Good Start team works with Maori and Pacific Islander children in schools to teach them about eating healthy food and being active. It also works with families to talk about healthy pregnancies, healthy babies and healthy children. In addition, the program provides healthcare professionals with tools to support Maori and Pacific Islander families.
