Olivia Dishington Child Protection Community Educator, Puawaitahi, Te Puaruruhau
I am the Child Protection Community Educator at Te Puaruruhau and I am a Registered Social Worker. I am from Ōtautahi and after graduating moved to Tāmaki Makaurau, where I have been for 8 years. During this time I have worked in Child Protection and have enjoyed the complexities that come along with this mahi. I am incredibly passionate about helping others respond to child abuse and ensuring tamariki and whānau are considered in all decision making. I believe the best prevention of harm sits within our rōhe and I feel privileged to support them in developing their knowledge.
