Safe Accommodation Service

For those in imminent risk

SHE provides a Safe Accommodation service for those who are at imminent risk of severe harm from family violence. It is a specialised service with strict criteria and a number of conditions of entry.

Access to the service requires an intensive assessment process to ensure suitability and safety for clients.

Safe Accommodation is provided on a short-term crisis basis with eligibility reviewed each day. Proactive engagement from clients is required.

If a client is not eligible to access Safe Accommodation, we will work closely with them to create alternative safety options.

Please note, Safe Accommodation is not emergency accommodation.
