ACC Living my life
The Living my Life service is a disability
support service to ACC clients who have long-term disability because of an injury.
We work with kiritaki (client) and their whānau to support them in making decisions about where they live, where they go, who they go with and what they do.
We will support you to achieve personal, community and employment goals.
ACC Rongoā
ACC recognise rongoā Māori as a kaupapa Māori service. It's culturally grounded care that weaves tikanga Māori, mātauranga Māori, te reo Māori, and te ao Māori through all aspects of the service.
We are a registered ACC rongoā provider supporting kiritaki through traditional māori rongoā practices of mirimiri and karakia.
ACC Navigation services
The Navigation Service was set up to give the public free, independent advice or guidance if they find the ACC system difficult to navigate. We encompass the Northern Waikato, and Franklin regions, serving individuals of diverse backgrounds and ages. Our objective is to provide kiritaki with the information and support necessary to access the entitlements they rightfully deserve. Supporting kiritaki through kaupapa māori approaches to navigate and understand your journey through ACC.
