Framework Trust
Framework delivers community based mental health and intellectual disability services for the greater Auckland region from strategic locations throughout the city. This not for profit organisation takes an integrated approach to the delivery of its numerous services, which primarily focus on developing vocational skills, supported employment, and providing education and training. These services are closely aligned with employers to assist mental health consumers’ transition back into employment and society. As part of the community orientated strategy, Framework operates two certified Organic City Farms, in Grey Lynn and Devonport, where clients are supported in their recovery through therapeutic horticulture and healthy living skills.
The sole focus of Framework is to improve clients’ quality of life, through restoring a positive sense of self and meaningful sense of belonging, while actively self-managing mental illness rebuilding their life, and actively contributing within the community. This is an ongoing process premised on partnerships between clients, their family, employees and society. Enriching the lives of individuals and their families through fostered resilience and recovery allows those with mental illness and intellectual disabilities to participate more actively in their communities.
