  • Women's Refuges Under Going Home Staying Home, September, 2014
    Women’s Refuges under Going Home Staying Home, September, 2014 – Jozefa Sobski for WEL NSW Background Women’s refuges were part of a system of support for women and/or their children fleeing domestic violence. There may have been as many as 90 women’s refuges and related women’s specific services across NSW. An estimated 700 Housing properties were allocated to them as crisis and transitional accommodation. The women’s refuges arose out of community need and were embedded in their communities using a network of services and support. The Going Home Staying Home reforms have destroyed this system rather than building on its strengths and improving its capacity and capability. They were not just services for homeless women and/or their children. The first women’s refuge was established in March, 1974 in Westmoreland Street, Glebe. Elsie Women’s Refuge was a response to the needs identified by women at a forum: Women Against a Violent Society held on 10th March that year in Sydney. Since that time women’s refuges have grown in number and the service and support provided by them and their geographical reach has significantly expanded from crisis accommodation and support to counselling, needs and risk assessment, referral and longer term housing assistance. Models of service have varied from one organisation to another in different locations responding to local needs and priorities. No doubt there have been capacity and quality differences in services depending on resources, governance, ethos, experience and local conditions. There is accommodation support listed on the web for women with and without children, for pregnant women, for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women, for women escaping domestic violence, for women with drug and alcohol issues, for NESB and CALD women as well as women with a mental illness or physical disabilities.

  • Funds Granted to Non Government Organisations
    Funds granted to non government organisations 2011–12 Funds granted to non government organisations 2011–12 The Department of Family and Community Services delivers a wide range of services in partnership with the non government sector. In 2011–12 FACS granted more than $2.5 billion to over 3,000 community-based services. This contribution is expected to grow over the next four years in response to reforms of current disability and out of home care services. FACS recognises the essential role that non government organisations (NGOs) play in providing vital services to people in need. NGOs are uniquely positioned to connect with clients at a local level and to understand the issues they face. They deliver the combined advantages of providing greater flexibility for clients, increasing economic and social benefits by attracting community resources, and supporting vulnerable people to have a say in issues which affect them. The Department also invests substantial resources into building the capacity of the non government sector so that it can continue to deliver high quality services and grow to meet future challenges. From 1 October 2011, Housing NSW’s asset functions transferred to the Department of Finance and Services. There were no funds granted to non government organisations by Businesslink in 2011–12.
