The State Government announced today extra funding for Women’s shelters across the New England including Pathfinders Women & Children’s Refuge in Inverell. The funding over the next two years will now provide 24/7 access to support, housing and financial assistance to women and children experiencing domestic violence.
The Inverell Women & Children’s Refuge will now be able to support intakes after hours and provide additional support and housing options to women and children leaving dangerous situations in the home.
