Description:
Family Works is the name for child & family services provided by the seven Presbyterian Support organisations in New Zealand. We are based in 40 centres nationwide and have been part of our communities for over a hundred years. We change the cycle of family violence, child abuse and neglect by empowering children and their families through social work and counselling services.
Some examples of Family Works services are:
– social work support and coordination
– counselling and therapy
– parenting programmes
– children’s programmes
– family dispute resolution service
– mentoring and support for young people
– family violence prevention
– restorative justice
– community reintegration
– connection to community supports, groups and networks.
We provide free, professional counselling for children and families who are affected by abuse.
