We congratulate YWCA Canberra for their plan to build safe and fit-for-purpose housing solutions for women in the ACT by utilising this land which they have owned for decades.
YWCA Canberra has announced that they will be building a supported housing development in Ainslie, Canberra, to provide ten supported housing units to cater for women aded 55+ and women with children who may have experienced domestic and family violence and are living on modest incomes.
This project fills a gap in the ACT housing market as there are no other purpose-built, independent, affordable rental properties in the ACT specifically designed for women. The development is expected to be completed by 2023.
