Welcome to Residential Support - Housing and Recovery Services

WALSH Trust currently provides housing and recovery services to up to 46 people. The aim of these services is to provide a safe and supportive home-like environment that is conducive to preparing people for independent living, while at the same time responding to their individual support needs. To this end, the services replicate so far as is possible the realities, responsibilities and obligations of community living. Services are offered to assist residents to develop and practice general, social and domestic living skills which can support successful social integration. Services may include:

• Personal inter-relationships

• Social integration

• Confidence building

• Self-determination

• Adult continuing education

• Budgeting

• Independent living skills

In addition, a specialist and totally individualised service is available to assist clients through the process, bureaucracies and occasionally, anxieties which can be complicated moving in from residential services. These services offer six West Auckland and one Central Auckland residential support properties.

This service is for adults, aged 17 and over:

• who are resident of Waitakere City

• who have been referred by Waitemata DHB mental health services
