Special visit to Gunbalanya Safe House

Gunbalanya Women’s Safe House welcomed Karli Brokenshire from the Darwin Aboriginal and Islander Women’s Shelter (DAIWS) to the Safe House over 13-15 September. 
Karli visited with Nithini from CatholicCareNT Crimes Victims Counselling service. 
Bernadette and the Safe House Team, supported by Joannah Hack facilitated a barbecue and gathered women from the community to talk with Karli and Niithini about their hopes and some of the challenges they experience. 
The Safe House team are excited about growing the support for women and children experiencing domestic and family violence in Gunbalanya and this initial conversation will begin to inform the future program of support. Karli will continue to visit Gunbalanya on a monthly basis as DAIWS have received NIAA funding to provide client support until June 2022.
