Support for victims of family violence
You Matter provides support for women and children escaping family violence. You Matter sets up the entire contents of a home, through taking referrals from family violence support agencies once accommodation has been found, to ensure the needs of the woman survivor and her children are met so that she may feel empowered to thrive and move forward with dignity and respect.
The grant provided by the Community Bank will go towards purchasing those extra items required to provide a fully functioning haven for women and children who have fled family violence.
