Agreement

If you are looking for autism related funding through NASC/ Whaikaha then this is not the assessment for you at this time.

Whaikaha have changed their minds after years of accepting telehealth diagnoses and have said our diagnoses no longer meet their long list of strict criteria. We will be providing support to those who already received a diagnosis with us but are not sure about going forward if we will continue the higher requirements now set forth by Whaikaha. 

In the meantime, we are advocating to anyone and everyone who might be able to help us and would love your support as well. Please make a complaint. You can find more information on the Whaikaha website here.

The ACFB Fund is not a crisis counselling centre, and we cannot provide emergency services for active or prospective clients.

If you’re in a life-threatening situation or experiencing a mental health emergency, this service is not appropriate for you at this time. Instead, use the following helplines to get the support you need:

  • Lifeline New Zealand: 0800 543 354 (call or text)
  • Suicide Crisis Helpline: 0508 828 865 (0508 TAUTOKO)
  • 1737 – Need to Talk?: Free call or text 1737 to speak with a trained counsellor (available 24/7)
  • Healthline: 0800 611 116 (available 24/7)

These contacts are available for immediate crisis support and can help connect you to further assistance.
