About KWSITH

About KWSITH

Keeping Women Safe in their Homes (KWSITH) is a key initiative of the National Plan to End Violence against Women and Children 2022-2032​​.

Since 2015-16, the Government has committed $76.57 million for KWSITH.

The KWSITH initiative helps women and their children who have experienced family and domestic violence to remain in their homes or a home of their choosing, when it is safe and appropriate to do so. This means women and children can continue to have access to their usual support networks, such as workplaces and schools.

The KWSITH initiative supports women through risk assessments, safety planning, home security audits and upgrades, and case management. The home security upgrades can vary across the different providers, but can include alarms, security screens and locks, and the use of technologies such as monitored personal safety devicessurveillance cameras, dashboard cameras, and electronic sweeping and de-bugging of homes and cars.
