For more than 20 years, Te Whare Awhi Wāhine o Whanganui-ā-Tara (The Wellington Women's House) has been home to women who need a safe place to stay, often at a difficult time in their lives. We provide low-cost, temporary housing to help women get back on their feet and ready to take the next steps in life. Our vision is that every woman in Wellington has a safe and comfortable home that enables her to meet her needs.
