Living in her relative’s garage, Grace never felt safe. Moving from place to place, everything was constantly changing – school, friends, routines. She was overwhelmed and most of all, scared for her son’s future and their safety.

Thousands of women and children across Australia are forced into homelessness – their only option to escape a violent home.
