About
NEW TO AOTEAROA (NAPS)
As a strategic community services partner within the Destination Aotearoa Ecosystem (DAE), NAPS designs and delivers programmes that help people successfully navigate employment, settlement, wellbeing, community connection, and lifelong learning opportunities.
New to Aotearoa Support Trust (NAPS) is a community-focused, not-for-profit organisation that provides settlement support, employment readiness learning, social and community advocacy, and wraparound support services for migrants, families, caregivers, youth, job seekers, and local communities across Aotearoa New Zealand.
New to Aotearoa SQ/PAC Quota Initiative (2024-2029 Pilot)
As a community organisation, one of our signature programmes is focused on helping Samoa Quota and PAC candidates meet the mandatory requirement that frustrates them the most: securing a validated job offer from a New Zealand employer.
This (pilot) Employment & Migrant Support Programme is specifically for the Samoa Quota candidates whose ballot numbers/names were selected for the 2024 - 2026 Samoan Quota & PAC (Pacific Access Category) Resident Visa process. The New to Aotearoa Program (initiative) is delivered in 2 phases over a period of 6-12 months.
