Resilience Programme
Vector Group Charitable Trust — one platform, multiple calm companions for everyday whānau resilience in Aotearoa.
Vector Group Charitable Trust · CC45966
Small steps, stronger whānau — across everyday life
The Resilience Programme is how Vector Group packages practical digital tools for whānau — without turning one app into everything. Each companion has its own focus, navigation, and content. Home Steps handles household resilience; Tiny Steps stays calm and child-centred.
Built in Te Puke, Bay of Plenty, alongside kai resilience, youth work, and community programmes documented at vectorgroup.org.nz.
Programme companions
Wave 1 launches three focused companions. Community and wellbeing companions are planned for later waves.

How we build
Shared foundations across companions — without turning household or parenting life into a scoreboard.
One platform, focused companions
Shared trust, auth, and content foundations — each companion keeps its own calm front door and mental model.
Free and low-pressure
No paywalls, streaks, or guilt dashboards. Practical steps whānau can try when it suits them.
Aotearoa-first
NZ context, seasonal rhythm, and signposting — educational only, never medical, legal, or financial advice.
Shared directory & guides
One catalogue and a growing Q&A library for the Resilience Programme — Te Puke to nationwide supports, plus calm signposts to official NZ resources.
Start with Home Steps
