Safe refuge when it matters most

Emerge provides crisis accommodation for women and children who need immediate safety from family violence. Crisis accommodation is more than a place to stay. It is a gateway to safety, healing and long-term support.

Our refuge, Crisis Accommodation Properties (CAP) and Transitional Housing Management (THM) options offer secure, trauma-informed environments where families can stabilise and begin their recovery.

Crisis accommodation and wraparound support

What we offer:

  • Safe, confidential accommodation
  • Intensive, on-site case management
  • Specialist children’s support
  • Therapeutic and legal health services
  • Support to transition to stable housing

Blessings: come in many forms, they will show up at the right time, help you through the hard times and stay into your best times. Those are guardian angels. "Emerge", thank you for giving us the change to live freely.
