Inner City Service for women With Complex Needs (Restoration)

The service supports women with complex needs who are experiencing homelessness or are at risk of becoming homeless and who require specialised responses due to a range of circumstances or issues such as mental health issues, alcohol and other drug misuse issues, and exiting correctional facilities or health institutions.

It delivers early intervention, outreach support and works collaboratively with housing providers, other organisations and individual women to assist and prevent an episode of homelessness occurring. This may include providing; assessment, support, case management, case coordination (including other services such as Health providers), referrals and other responses that may be required to prevent an episode of homelessness.

The service has a strong focus on responses for Aboriginal people and is accessible to people from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds.
