WELCOME TO ATAREIRA Mental Health Support for Family and Whanau

Atareira (formerly known as Schizophrenia Fellowship Wgtn) is a Wellington based Mental Health organization. We are the local branch of Supporting Families in Mental Illness NZ and we enjoy a close relationship with other branches across the country.

Atareira provides services throughout the Wellington region (including the Hutt Valley, Porirua and the Kapiti Coast) for people who experience mental illness and their family and whanau.

We believe that families and whanau can play a key role in the recovery process for someone who experiences a mental illness.

The organization has a long history of providing support, information and education to family members, community groups and mental health services. We have developed relationships and understanding of services that enables us to advocate for families as they support their loved ones.
