Referral Process

Any student enrolled in a secondary education provider, who is seeking support for themselves or wanting to refer others to Stand Up!, may enquire about the programme at their school’s health centre. 

Health centre staff will be able to advise whether Stand Up! is available and which day of the week practitioners visit. Anyone can make a referral, including the principal, deans, nurses, teachers and peers. 

Because we work closely with and as part of each school’s Student Health Centre, no parental consent is required. 

To self-refer or refer someone else, please provide your full name and some background detail around the reason for referral. One of our practitioners will then contact the student and arrange an initial catch up to get a full story of their life and background. 

Description

Stand Up! is a youth development programme for rangatahi whose lives are influenced by alcohol and other drugs.
