About the organisation
Georgina Martina Inc. is a community-based organisation which operates a state-wide family violence support and accommodation service including two high security ‘Core and Cluster’ refuges – Georgina and Martina. The organisation is committed to an intersectional feminist and strength-based approach to service delivery that views victim/survivors as the experts in their own lives. Our practice framework is multi-disciplinary, child focused, and trauma informed.
Both Martina and Georgina refuges provide high security crisis accommodations, ensuring victim/survivors (including children) experiencing family violence can feel safe within a supported environment that promotes empowerment, healing and client centred case planning. The organisation operates an outreach support service for clients who have moved on from high security accommodation and are working towards safe and appropriate housing goals. We maintain several properties for longer-term support and work closely with mainstream housing services to ensure appropriate exit points from the service.
