Where services come together
The One Stop Hub (Hub) model provides a range of family and domestic violence services in one location, alongside other community services, prioritising ease of access for victims in seeking help, assistance and support.
By co-locating key support with other community services, a ‘soft’ entry point is created, reducing stigma attached to seeking assistance.
The integrated service delivery shown in the Hubs model supports the State Government’s commitment to keeping Western Australian women and their children safe.
Western Australia’s first family and domestic violence Hubs were officially launched by Prevention of Family and Domestic Violence Minister Simone McGurk in December 2020.
An additional two Hubs will be established as part of a $60 million package of election commitments providing a comprehensive response to family and domestic violence. This will bring the number of Hubs in Western Australia to four.
