ABOUT JUNO

Juno works with women in Melbourne’s northern suburbs who are experiencing homelessness and family violence. Formerly known as WISHIN*, we have a long history of partnering with women to help them make lasting change in their lives.

We are an independent, feminist organisation, run by women for women, with a commitment to social change. Our approach to support is non-judgemental, evidence-based, trauma informed and person-centred.

Juno’s staff work with an intersectional feminist lens, recognising the many ways women can be marginalised and the cumulative effects that multiple forms of discrimination can have. We speak out and amplify the voices of women to increase awareness of the challenges they face, the support required and to advocate for change to the systems and structures that hold them back.

Our primary role is helping women in crisis and their children find secure accommodation and access resources. We also support them to find and move into long term housing and access other specialised supports.

Juno also works in partnership with women who have experienced homelessness and family violence to promote early access to information and build capacity to avert future housing crisis.
