Helping families regain control of their lives
We provide a place of physical and emotional safety where women and children affected by Domestic and Family Violence can recover, rebuild and plan for a brighter future.
We support families to overcome trauma and develop the knowledge, skills and confidence to regain control of their lives. Families have access to specialised counselling, child therapy, training in life skills, and links to health, legal and specialist services. We provide therapeutic support to help women and children break the cycle of violence and resettle into safe, affordable housing.
Supporting children to process and overcome trauma and abuse
Many infants and children entering our Domestic and Family Violence Service have been exposed to traumatic experiences. Our therapeutic program improves the social and emotional wellbeing of infants and children and works with parents and children to improve family relationships.
