All AJPA Justices should belong to a Support Group and attend meetings. These meetings are an integral part of being a Justice and offer an opportunity to network and undertake training. It is at these meetings that we all continue to learn as Justices and can be brought up to speed with the latest issues, Service Desk requirements and general items of interest. Not working on a Service Desk is not a reason not to attend a Support Group. We have approximately 1300 Justices of the Peace in Auckland and currently, around 50% attend a Support Group Meeting. You don’t have to attend a Support Group Meeting in the area where you live – but you should attend a meeting at least twice a year. Below is a list of Support Groups in the Auckland area together with the Support Group Coordinators and their contact numbers. You may search for your suburb by typing it into the search box.
