Our Purpose

Supporting Women navigating domestic violence lies at the centre of what we do at Pop In.

We collaborate with women and their children to help them build a life free from domestic violence, supporting them to shape a meaningful future on their own terms.

Kindness, dignity and respect

We welcome all women and children who come to us with respect, kindness and in a non-judgemental way, irrespective of income, status and background.

Dedication to personal growth

We believe in helping women get back on their feet, to feel empowered, by listening, supporting and building skills and knowledge.

Our values

Importance of community

We aim to educate, support and empower the people of the Southern Highlands to say NO to domestic violence, working alongside relevant local agencies.

Trust and safety

Pop In is a safe, secure, trustworthy environment for women and their children, for our employees, for our volunteers and for the community.

Our model of support

The service model of Pop In is based on the principle that women and children can enter the service at any point of their need. Our experience is the majority of women we support, initially access the service for their basic needs. Once we have met those needs and they feel safe, listened to and trust Pop In, they begin to access the full suite of services available working with our specialist case workers.

Since each woman is in a different place and proceeds at a different rate, we tailor our support to her needs. We utilise a comprehensive supportive hub that provides intensive case work and collaborates with our many partner organisations to create a network of care as we walk alongside the women and children as they navigate DFV.
