Methamphetamine amongst Māori and our Whānau
Patua te Ngangara (PTN) is an initiative of Hoani Waititi Marae. It aims to help whanau who are dealing with the effects of meth/P.
Patua te Ngangara loosely translates as ‘battle with the devil’ – ‘P’ meth,crank, burn, ice. Rather than being recognised as anti P we are a pro whanau initiative. Nau te rourou, naku te rourou ka ora te iwi. If you and I both contribute there will be enough for all.
