Clinical Advisory Services Aotearoa (Casa)

CASA is a New Zealand based organisation with staff throughout New Zealand. We are a team of highly experienced people with clinical and/or lived experience of suicide working in the suicide prevention and postvention space. We specialise in working with agencies and communities to help them best manage suicide risk. All CASA Clinical Advisors are required to be registered Health Professionals and abide by their professional standards. CASA uses a range of resources in their work. Resources have been developed for whānau, young people, clinical case workers and organisations. In addition to CASA developed resources, we also draw on the resources developed by our colleagues from other local agencies where appropriate. CASA has a model of working alongside groups and organisation that acknowledges the strengths both parties bring to the relationship. We bring a broad range of knowledge, skills and experience in the areas of suicide prevention and postvention as well as broader areas of mental health and wellbeing.
