The Victoria Faulkner Women's Centre

Come Together. Find Support. Take Action.

The Women’s Centre is a safe and respectful space where all self-identified women, and non-binary folks, can connect with one another, access support and services, and work together to create positive change for each other and the community.

We are committed to promoting women's equality and well-being. We do so by raising awareness, educating, advocating and collaborating with government and non-government organizations.

The Women’s Centre strives towards the day when all women walk in safety, live healthy lives, excel in leadership roles and are supported and empowered to fulfill their dreams.
