Reaching Out

Who New Zealanders turn to for relationship support

Our researchers talked in depth to 50 people to find out how they accessed information and support to sustain their couple relationships.

We found that people often discuss relationship problems, not with professional counsellors, but with their family, friends, GPs, nurses, school teachers, church ministers and community elders.

This report was written for the Families Commission by Mike Roguski, Sally Duckworth, Fleur Chavel and Carla Guy.
