Shelters
Women’s/Family shelters and safe houses have been established in a number of locations, building on the network of existing Aboriginal services, to provide a safe, short-term residence for women and their children who are seeking safety from partners, families or selves. Programming may include client based non-residential services such as follow-up/aftercare and support, and participant based activities to prevent violence.
