REFERRALS

REFERRALS TO RISE

Clients come to RISE either through another agency, the Family Court, NZ Police, or through a self-referral where you contact us directly. We hold an initial assessment meeting to identify the service best suited for you.

If you are attending as part of a Family Court or Corrections referral our services are free. 

If you are taking up a RISE service voluntarily, money will never be a barrier to receiving help. If it’s possible, we ask you to make a contribution to sessions with a RISE clinician. Costs vary between group programmes and individual programmes. Work and Income may help cover costs.

Referral form


If you are a government or social agency and would like to refer a client to us, please download and fill out the referral form. Further directions are on the form.

Self-referrals


Are you or your family seeking support? We offer specialist family violence services to adults, families, youth, and children who have experienced or are experiencing family violence. We also offer services for users of violence who wish to live without violence.

If you would like to request support, download the self-referral form and follow the directions to fill it out and return it to us. You can also contact us directly. Also,if this is an emergency please call 111.

“I think everyone should do the RISE course, for the material they teach - even people that don’t think they have anger issues …. it changes lives.
