What We Do

We help women experiencing family violence, separation, and divorce to find safety and get legal advice.

 

Our lawyers, social workers and financial counsellors work with you to make sure that you have what you need to make decisions for yourself and your children, gain independence and financial stability.

 

Our support is free and confidential. We help you with court, Centrelink, police, Child Protection, victims of crime tribunal, creditors and our immigration system. We understand how difficult it is.
