About us

We believe that everyone has the right to a healthy home and the potential to live well.

Together, we make a difference

Housing is a fundamental human right

Everyone has the right to a healthy home and the potential to live well. That belief underpins everything we do for the people in our communities.

At LinkPeople, we follow the Housing First philosophy, because we know that having a stable and suitable home is the foundation of a person’s wellbeing.

Our priority is to help people find permanent, stable housing and work with them to ensure they can access the health, social and wellbeing support they need to help them stay there.

We help people to be contributing members of their communities, good tenants and good neighbours – no matter what service they receive from us.

LinkPeople couldn’t do this without our strong community relationships with landlords, property investors, services and organisations – because together, we make a difference.

You’ll find us throughout New Zealand, including the Auckland, Waikato, Lakes, Taranaki, Manawatu, Wellington and Canterbury regions.

We enrich wellbeing by linking people to healthy and affordable homes and appropriate services.

Our history

Having a home and successfully navigating social services are both really important for a person’s health and wellbeing. So, in 2016, Keys Social Housing and Linkage teamed up to become LinkPeople. Our new name describes exactly what we do.

If you have worked with Keys Social Housing or Linkage before, you can expect to get the same excellent services, by the same people, from the same locations.
