Pillars Pathway Centres
Pillars Ka Pou Whakahou has created a whānau-friendly environment giving Dads the opportunity to bond with their tamariki while serving their prison sentence. These spaces are filled with toys, books and games, giving families the ability to reconnect and have fun and bond as a family unit.
Our Pathway Centres are for minimum security people in prison and visitation is dependent on Ara Poutama (The Department of Corrections).
These centres are run by Pillars Staff in Christchurch Men’s Prison and Invercargill Prison.
