The wise and brilliant Occupational Therapist that I work with, tell me that the evidence is clear, supporting young people into work/education and then making sure they have the supports to stay in those roles is better for their long term Mental health, than medication - So if you want a role that makes a long term difference for young people joinery to wellness, become the Porirua CAMHS, work first consultant.

**Mō tō mātou rōpū - About our team**

Porirua has the advantage of being the first city away from Wellington, this means that people choose to live and work in this area.
