CHATBUS
TALKING THROUGH LIFE
A free mobile
counselling service for
Intermediate School Children in
Dunedin
Rather than trying to pick up the pieces of kids lives once they have fallen over, like an ambulance at the bottom of the cliff, ChatBus seeks to turn young lives around before they reach this point.
Mission Statement: Restoring hope and building resiliency while encouraging empowering and supporting youth through their struggles.
ChatBus is TALKING THROUGH LIFE and moving forward in counselling.
Research repeatedly shows that early intervention is the most effective method for positive change.
Principals and teachers recognise the truth of this, and yet school counsellers are only funded in our secondary schools. ChatBus provides the flexibility to cover several schools with professional services by a qualified counsellor.
Parental separation and family violence have considerable impact on our children. They are caught in the middle without choice.
ChatBus provides a place for our children to seek the support they need.
