Eastern Murrumbidgee Network Homelessness Service

This service supports clients through two components: co-ordination and brokerage, and homelessness support. It responds to a range of client groups, including women and children experiencing domestic and family violence, Aboriginal people, people from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds, and people who are chronically homeless or with complex needs.

The homelessness support component provides a comprehensive range of responses, including early intervention, rapid re-housing, crisis and transitional accommodation, and intensive responses for people with complex needs such as those experiencing mental health issues.

The coordination and brokerage component coordinates an integrated service network for all client groups and locations across the Eastern Murrumbidgee Network service area. It provides flexible brokerage packages to enable appropriate case management and other support to clients.

This service provides Domestic Violence Response Enhancement (DVRE) to strength their after-hours responses to women in crisis.

This service provides a women’s refuge and crisis accommodation for women with or without children:

• Wagga Wagga Women and Children’s Service
