Abstract
This research project was commissioned by the New Zealand Community Growth Trust (NZCGT) the body that became legally responsible for the assets of an intentional community, known as Centrepoint, after it closed. One function of the NZCGT is to address the rehabilitation needs of former residents including the children who grew up there. The research is intended to help the NZCGT achieve a better understanding of the needs of the former children of Centrepoint and to enable it to provide more effective assistance to them.
