Our story
Supporting our community since 2008
Established in 2008, the Trust is the legal face of CEO Roopa Suchdev's work, which began in 1996 helping victims of domestic abuse across New Zealand.
Our focus began with the South Asian community, which faces particular inequality and violence. Today we support people of all ethnicities, families, and ages across Auckland and beyond, always with free, confidential, and culturally responsive care.
We continue through the dedication of our team, working towards a society that nurtures and empowers everyone to reach their potential.
