Growing the size and skills of the Pasifika mental health and addiction workforce takes more than just financial support. It’s also a combination of providing appropriate mentoring, coaching, cultural and pastoral care, as well as support in identifying employment and career pathways.
That’s why the Futures that Work three-step programme has been successful.
- Get your fees paid – The maximum value of the scholarship is variable and paid directly to the tertiary provider.
- Get your study sorted – Le Va’s Teuila mentoring and coaching model helps identify the right support to complete your study on time.
- Get your dream job – We’ll help with planning your career in mental health or addiction.
The Futures that Work Pacific Mental Health and Addiction Scholarship programme is open to those of Indigenous-Pacific descent, currently enrolled in an NZQA accredited mental health-related qualification.
Applications for the Futures that Work Pacific Mental Health and Addiction Scholarship are closed for 2025.
