About Us

We exist because all children and families should have a safe home, strong connections and opportunities to thrive in life.
The Day After

The Day After is our End of Financial Year appeal. It's about the quiet moment after support arrives: when a woman feels safe at home, a child sleeps soundly, and life slowly starts to look like itself again. Your tax-deductible gift helps fund both the practical care a family needs and the work that makes it possible, helping more people across Southern Sydney move from surviving to thriving.
How to Refer

Help is easy to access. You can be referred by a health professional or another agency, or self-refer. Just call us on (02) 9528 2933 and tell us what you need help with.
