The Community Support Services Central - a specialist service within Ember - is responsible for engaging and supporting people who face challenges with their mental wellbeing. The aim is that all people can engage in their chosen community and achieve their fullest potential. This includes working with the individual as well as a commitment to work actively in partnership with family/ whānau, Community Mental Health Centres and General Practitioners.

What makes this role unique is the opportunity to focus supports within our family/whānau contract. As part of this team we are able to support parents, where challenges to mental wellbeing and their parenting intersect, as well as provide support to their children, with the focus on coping skills and psychoeducation. We do this through one-on-one delivery as well as in a group setting.
