The Community Resources Directory
The Community Resources Directory is a collection of national and local Auckland mental-health services and supports. If you live outside of Auckland, you will find links to national services that may be in your area and other online directories to help you find the options near you. This is in no way an exhaustive list of everything on offer, but it will give you a good idea of what’s out there and a few places to start. Recovering from a mental-health problem is no simple journey but luckily there are many resources out there to help us on our way.

Please note the Community Resources Directory is currently being updated and some sections are out of date. I am in progress with moving the directory onto its own series of webpages so you can browse the information more easily online and links will appear in the contents list above as each section is completed.
Something Missing?
If you can’t find what you are looking for, try checking out one of the other sections – I might have categorised things differently from the way you might do so. Many services do more than one kind of work, so it is worthwhile checking out a number of different sections. You might also find what you are looking for in the Online Resources Pack on the Engage Aotearoa website. This is a living document that is updated on a regular basis – the more input community members have, the richer this resource will be for those who need it. If you have something to add or update, please let me know. Together, we can make sure everyone is linked in and aware of what is out there to help!
