HEALTHY ATTITUDES TOWARDS ALCOHOL (HATA)

After the Community Alcohol Action group was set up in 2015, it soon became clear that further direction was needed if we were to make inroads in addressing the hazardous drinking culture in Invercargill. Which is where Healthy Attitudes Towards Alcohol comes in.

UNDERSTANDING OUR COMMUNITY

One of the main roles of Healthy Families Invercargill is to understand our community's needs. To this end, we work extensively with community organisations and champions to gather the voice of the community, and community insights, which are then used to inform decision making processes at high end level. Below are examples of the work we have done in this area.
