Community Welfare and Services

Family Works Otago has a comprehensive Community Welfare and Services programme which runs in Dunedin and Central Otago.

 

Who is the programme for?

Like me, do you find your everyday life becoming more complex, from the so-called easy access touch phone systems, to the 'client focused' Government agencies?

 

Sometimes like me, do find yourself awake at nights with what seems like a million things going around and around in your head.

 

And like me, do you wonder what to do?

 

Family Works is the family, children and community services division of Presbyterian Support Otago, offering a wide range of programmes and community development services in Otago.
