Wirrawee Gunya staff are local Aboriginal women who have strong connections with the local Aboriginal community but also, have extensive experience in providing specialised domestic and family violence support that is culturally safe, appropriate and sensitive support to women and children.
Wirrawee Gunya provides crisis accommodation, transitional housing and outreach supports to Aboriginal women and children across Nepean, Blue Mountains and Blacktown regions. We also have an Aboriginal Children’s Specialist Worker that provides intensive support to children in our services in rebuilding relationships, connections with mums, siblings, family and community but also, have positive and happy experiences after being victims of violence.
We have two locations for our Aboriginal Refuges-Wirrawee Gunya Penrith and Wirrawee Gunya Dharruk.
