The Women’s Housing Company

Provides accommodation to eligible women across the housing continuum, including crisis accommodation, transitional housing, social housing and affordable housing.

Crisis Accommodation

is short term housing (generally up to three months) for people who are homeless, or at risk of becoming homeless, and are in crisis. This type of housing is provided in conjunction with Specialist Homelessness Services (SHS) to assist with alleviating crisis situations and to help identify suitable longer term accommodation.

Transitional Housing

is short to medium term subsidised rental housing (generally from three to eighteen months) for eligible people experiencing homelessness or those at risk. Transitional Housing is accessed only through a nomination made by a Specialist Homelessness Service (SHS).
