DCM (Downtown Community Ministry) works at the tough end of things. When people have no money, no food, and no roof over their heads, they come to us.
DCM’s vision is for communities where whānau are housed, connected, valued, and thriving.
DCM has made a huge difference in the lives of countless individuals for over 55 years – and today over 1,200 people continue to access our services each year. They are among the most marginalised and vulnerable people in our city, and our amazing team seek to empower them to reach their housing and social aspirations.
Everyone is welcome at DCM, even if they have been excluded from other services. We do this by following our values of Manaakitanga (integrity, trust, sincerity), Kotahitanga (unity, collective action), Pono (walk the talk), Rangatiratanga (leadership, striving for excellence), Hihiritanga (striving for improvement), and Whanaungatanga (identity and belonging).
We are a strong, connected network of passionate organisations. Want to join us?
