What we do

"Enabling Young People"

What’s Up is a free, national telephone counselling service for New Zealanders aged 5 to 18 years that has been available since 22nd September 2001. The service operates seven days a week from noon to midnight. Paid, trained and closely supervised professional counsellors answer the telephones.

Advanced technology is used to collect non-identifying information on calls, which is analysed and used to advocate for children’s needs.

What’s Up aims to provide early help to children and teach them skills that will help prevent the development of major problems later in their lives.
