    Faster access to community support

    Yeni Zelanda

    The Government is continuing to back community organisations to deliver faster access to support, more frontline workers and a better crisis response, with 22 NGOs set to receive support through the third round of the Mental Health and Addiction Community Sector Innovation Fund. “Before coming into office, we committed to delivering more resources to the frontline by scaling up NGOs and community providers who are already delivering better mental health outcomes,” Mr Doocey says. “I am proud to have committed $20 million in match funding over the last few years to community mental health organisations. “Our NGOs are often closest to the people they support and understand what is needed in their communities. The Innovation Fund gives these organisations an opportunity to test new approaches and build on ideas that are already working. “Already, the Fund has supported 19 initiatives, now taking the total number to 39. It’s great to be at the New Zealand Drug Foundation today as one of the organisations being supported in the latest round, with its initiative focused on expanding SMART Recovery across New Zealand. “The initiative will train new facilitators, support organisations and community groups to establish SMART Recovery meetings across New Zealand and develop resources for people going through addiction.” Some of the other initiatives include: • Wellington City Mission – expanding integrated alcohol harm-reduction outreach into communities for people experiencing alcohol-related harm and complex housing needs. • Aroha ki te Tamariki Trust – developing an integrated youth hub in Dunedin and testing a mobile youth crisis support service. • Hanmer Springs Community Trust – expanding its rural adult ADHD pilot into a regional assessment, treatment and support service for rural communities. • Auckland City Mission – delivering a mobile multidisciplinary health team supporting people experiencing co-existing mental health and addiction needs alongside housing insecurity. • Tautoko Mai Sexual Harm Support Services Trust – integrating mental health and addiction clinicians into crisis, sexual violence and family services across the Bay of Plenty and rural Waikato. • Think and Be Me – expanding a school-based early intervention programme providing mental health support, digital resources and training for educators. • SchoolTV – expanding its online wellbeing platform to new schools, providing parents, family and educators with guidance, resources and pathways to support. • Korowai Aroha Trust – embedding clinical mental health and addiction staff in primary care to provide assessments, including ADHD assessments, and workforce development. • Midlands Regional Health Network Charitable Trust – extending access to integrated primary mental health support through a virtual Health Improvement Practitioner service. • Living Water Health Limited – expanding a multidisciplinary model bringing together GPs, nurses, counsellors, clinical psychologists and occupational therapists to provide coordinated mental health support. “Several other fantastic organsations will also receive funding to improve access to support. This includes initiatives led by the Problem Gambling Foundation, Weave Hawkes Bay, The Tongan Health Society Inc., Te Arawa Whānau Ora, Mates of Hawkes Bay, The Asian Network Incorporated, Ki te Tihi – The Loft, Hearts & Minds, Matapuna Training Centre, Diversity Counselling New Zealand and Academy Ex Limited. “We are focused on making sure people have faster access to support and community organisations are an important part of delivering that, we will continue to back the frontline to help more New Zealanders get support earlier.” Notes to editor: Please see the Health New Zealand website here, for more information on all of the organisations receiving funding, and what they will be doing.

    More psychology hubs to grow the frontline

    Yeni Zelanda

    The Government is growing the frontline psychology workforce by ensuring more psychology students have access to internships, with the number of Psychology Intern Hubs increasing next year, Minister for Mental Health Matt Doocey says. “We know there are students coming through our universities who want to become psychologists, but getting the supervised experience they need can be a real bottleneck. “That’s why we are removing barriers by growing the number of Psychology Intern Hubs across the country, giving more students access to supported placements and helping more mental health services build the capacity to take on interns. “From next year there will be eight hubs around the country, an increase of two, with the hubs supporting up to 40 interns each year. “These hubs will provide more opportunities for psychology interns to gain supervised experience in mental health and addiction services, while strengthening the pathway from university training into the frontline workforce. “They provide dedicated supervision for psychology interns, including peer support, while giving them exposure to a range of mental health and addiction services and setting them up well for a career as a psychologist. “The hubs will be based across specialist, primary and community services, including in Waikato, Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch and now for the first time Northland and Dunedin too. “This is part of our wider plan to grow the psychology workforce and create more pathways into the frontline. “We are on track to double clinical psychology internships, increasing from 40 to 80. In 2027, Health New Zealand will fund 85 internships, up from 75 so far this year. “We have also established the new Psychology Assistant role, creating another pathway for psychology graduates who miss out on a postgraduate place and keep them working in mental health. “Psychology Assistants will work alongside registered psychologists, providing practical support and helping people access support faster, while allowing psychologists to focus more of their time on people with the most complex needs. “We are building the future workforce and fixing the basics by growing the pipeline of frontline workers. We came into Government with a clear plan to deliver faster access to support, more frontline workers and a better crisis response, and it’s paying off.”
