Our Women’s Service is short term, transitional accommodation in East Perth for single, adult women.
Women’s supported accommodation
Our service is designed to support 28 residents for up to three months while they actively seek and secure a long-term housing solution.
Residents have access to single bedrooms with either a private ensuite or shared bathroom, common cooking, recreation, garden and sitting areas and a laundry. Residents also have regular contact with their case manager who works with them to develop their personalised recovery plan, which includes setting goals that support their recovery and assist them to explore and transition into long-term housing. Case managers will often refer and link residents with health and community support agencies to help improve and enhance their personal health and wellbeing, advocate on their behalf and assist them to grow their independent living skills.
