Family 2

Family Works is a Presbyterian Support social service, helping build safer, stronger, more connected families/whānau and communities. When tamariki are safe they feel secure and protected. Strong families have the ability to bounce back from adversity and being connected helps whānau feel supported and included in their communities.

Our services are tailored to meet the needs of each child, young person, parent and whānau, while building on the strengths they already have. Informed by research and evidence, we support people to reach positive solutions.
