Contribute to the design of a more effective entryway to the sexual violence response system
ACC have approved the initial design concepts developed by Whakarongorau Aotearoa | New Zealand Telehealth Services for a more effective entryway (Waharoa) into the sexual violence response system and ACC.
As part of the next phase of the work, Whakarongorau is establishing a Design Working Group to develop further specific elements of the proposed design.
The Waharoa Design Working Group will be comprised of up to 10 members who have knowledge, experience and understanding of the sexual violence response system, the people it serves, and what will make a difference. The Working Group will also be attended by representatives from ACC and MSD.
Whakarongorau are especially interested in having members that bring a good understanding of sexual violence services relating to Māori, disabled communities, male survivors, young people and children, and LGBTQIA+ communities.
The Expression of Interest process is led by Whakarongorau, with ACC support, and opened in late November 2023. Members will be appointed by 20 December 2023 and the Working Group will run from February to June 2024. The first workshop is on 8 and 9 February 2024 in Auckland, and future sessions will be held fortnightly online.
