This paper identifi es and analyses the networks of support for tangata whaiora (mental health clients) utilising a kaupapa Mori health service following the tautahi/Christchurch earthquakes in Aotearoa New Zealand from 2010 to 2012. Semi-structured interviews were undertaken with 39 participants, comprising clients (Mori and Pkeh), staff, managers and board members of a kaupapa Mori provider in the city. Selected quotes are presented alongside a social network analysis of the support accessed by all participants. Results show the signifi cant isolation of both Mori and Pkeh mental health clients post-disaster and the complexity of individuals and collectives dealing with temporally and spatially overlapping hazards and disasters at personal, whnau and community level.
