Court Communication Assistant roles

Our speech-language therapists have been gaining valuable experience of supporting witnesses and defendants with communication in justice settings in the last year.  This has included work within the High, District and Youth Courts and we are working closely with other colleagues involved in similar work in NZ and also overseas. We are on a working party which is developing processes and protocols for this work within the Youth Court. Please contact us to discuss any aspect of this work. Information about the process we are currently using and how to refer for this service is provided on our website here.
