• Families are usually recommended to The Salvation Army by Work & Income NZ. During the programme, a Work & Income Case Manager will work closely along side the Family Assistance Field Worker.

  • Our Service Aim is to help increase the participation of family members in their cultural, social, educational, spiritual and community life.

  • The resources offered to Family Assistance clients by The Salvation Army include a wide range of established programmes (including youth activities) to address clients perceived needs.

  • Through our own Counselling Service, we also offer the Positive Lifestyle Programme for adults and the X-PLOR programme to young people aged 10 – 18 years.

  • Comprehensive support is also provided to our Family Assistance clients by our depth of networking with other community and government agencies.

  • Our Family Assistance Field Workers support families on the programme to set goals and give guidance on ways to achieve these goals.

  • To be eligible to receive support from the Family Assistance Programme the client needs to be on a Work and Income benefit.
