    Ruapehu Community Support Trust/Whakakotahitanga is a total wrap-around service for families involved in domestic violence situations. We work with couples involved in domestic violence and will address all required issues through intervention services. We also run a weekend family violence camp aimed at educating couples involved in domestic violence, in a group setting. 

    Whakakotahitanga is run by Taumarunui Police and aided by other organisations. Our programme is available to couples nationwide, but is based in the North Island.
