Detour House Inc

Detour House Inc provides accommodation and care to women and girls in the heart of Sydney through two services – Detour House and The Girls Refuge. Both services are operated by experienced staff and overseen by a management committee of professional women who bring breadth in skill and experience.

Detour House and The Girls Refuge are funded by the Department of Communities and Justice as Specialist Homelessness Services to provide people in crisis with safe and secure accommodation and housing. Both services are overseen by a capable General Manager.

Detour House has been operating since 1984 and offers a residential rehabilitation program for women who are dealing with alcohol and / or other drug dependency. The program includes three months in-house and a following period in independent living with ongoing case management.

The Girls Refuge has been operating since 1975 and provides support and a three month stay in a safe, home-like environment for up to ten young women aged 13-17 who are experiencing homelessness or risk of homelessness. The Girls Refuge also provides outreach case management to young women at risk of homelessness.
