Storm Recovery Navigation Service
Storm Recovery Navigators help you access the information, services and support you need to plan your recovery from severe weather disasters.
About Your Navigator service
Your Storm Recovery Navigators are here to connect you to the resources and information you need to navigate your way through the coming months and beyond.
Due to the generous support from Ministry of Social Development, Auckland Council are able to partner with non-government organisations and iwi partner groups. Our Navigators are based in our partner community organisations to support impacted whānau and families. I AM Mangere, Affirming Works, Siola and South Seas are four organisations that are available to help Mangere directly.
