At Catherine House, we offer accommodation and support services for women experiencing homelessness, who are 18 years and older, and unaccompanied by children.
All of our programs and services are recovery-oriented. We not only deal with the immediate issues that have led a client to a period of homelessness, we also work with our clients to plan for a future that helps her sustain her housing and build a life that is meaningful and purposeful for her and her family.
Every night of the year we accommodate 52 women experiencing homelessness.
Homelessness can happen to anyone.
It could be your mother, sister, grandmother or friend. It could be you.
Our focus at Catherine House is to not only provide a safe place of accommodation but ensure each woman has a chance to recover from what has led her into homelessness. For many women, this could be years of abuse, trauma or living with mental health issues.
Whatever the reason, recovery is always possible.
Please support Catherine House and every woman we support by making a tax deductible donation.
Lovely to see the smiling faces of some our supporters in the latest edition of the SALife Magazine!

"Homelessness didn’t just happen overnight; for me, it took three years of selling off my life. My income protection refused to pay and once sick leave ran out and I burned through my savings while on leave without pay, I had to sell the furniture, the rest of our belongings, and finally our house"

Its a hidden problem, 10's of thousands of people are on the brink. If unemployment gets worse lookout! Everything is covered up. People fake normal. Nobody can change the direction this country is going down, if you protest, the media will shut you down or wont even follow up. The rich and greedy run everything. They can't see that it will degrade society!!!
