Our mission is for a just, compassionate and inclusive society. We support those who need it most to feel safer, stronger and more positively connected to their families/whānau and to their communities.
Our social services are community-based and located throughout the Upper South Island.
We'll help you to build healthy relationships within your family/whānau. Our Family Works service offers free, professional support, working alongside your whānau when and how you need it.
Are you young and on your own? If things aren't working out, Family Works is here to support you and ensure that you access the help you need. We'll help you get ahead and create a brighter future!
Worried about your child/tamariki? We can help them to thrive! Family Works offers a range of caring, free services for tamariki. We'll work with you, your child and their school, to understand and resolve any problems.
We'll support you to stay active and build your social network. Our Enliven programmes ensure that older New Zealanders/kaumātua have access to the support they need to be safe, healthy and independent.
Last year we helped over 3,000 families/whānau to learn, grow and thrive.
Last year 200 volunteers donated 22,396 hours of their time to help us.
893 older people/kaumātua attended our Enliven day programmes.
No matter how large or small, every donation counts, is used locally and is greatly appreciated. Thank you for making a positive difference to the lives of others.
