About the program
Our refuges provide crisis accommodation and in-community support for women and their children who are escaping violence. We create safe and welcoming environments for children, and support families to rest, build safety and begin to heal from trauma.
These services are grounded in a child-rights approach, ensuring children are recognised as victim-survivors in their own right and have their own spaces in the refuge.
Our service is culturally responsive and inclusive, welcoming families of all backgrounds - including pets. Our priority is recovery, dignity, and long-term stability for all clients, helping women and children transition into secure housing and rebuild their lives on their own terms.
