Notes:	This Australian magazine article discusses the Safe At Home (SAH) program, a homelessness service to support the needs of at-risk women and children experiencing domestic and family violence in Western Australia. The focus of the program is to reduce and ultimately prevent homelessness by assisting women to obtain and maintain secure accommodation without the perpetrator of the violence. The article explains the services provided by the program and the referral pathways for clients. It concludes with the importance of raising awareness about domestic violence among victims, emphasising early intervention initiatives and the need for a long term commitment to increasing service providers’ knowledge and skills in the area.
