Support services for people experiencing violence are always available, even during the holidays. Contact details for support services are on our website.

The Campaign for Action on Family Violence has information about how to get support for people experiencing violence. There is information to get help for yourself, friends or whānau, or your kids.

For people using violence or worried about their behaviour, find information, live chat and links to support services at www.inyourhands.org.nz. This website also has information for people who want to support someone who might be using violence.

The December 2023 DVFree newsletter has helpful information about understanding family violence during the holidays

We hope that you are able to take some time out to be with your whānau, rest and rejuvenate over the holidays.
