About WRISC

Our Vision

Safety, equality and opportunity for all people.

Our Mission

To promote respectful relationships through services which enhance the safety, autonomy and wellbeing of women and children.

Our Values

The organisation works from a feminist perspective and values: innovation, integrity, respect and trust.

Principles

Everyone

  • has the right to be safe, to be treated equally and to have access to the same opportunities as everyone else. We know that violence of any kind denies people these rights and attacks their dignity and self-respect.
  • has the right to live free from violence, fear and intimidation.

Women and Children

WRISC will build relationships between service users and the community, enabling shared power and responsibility, to meet diverse individual and community needs and enhance an environment where women and children’s voices are at the centre of all we do.

Equity and Equality

WRISC will provide effective and accountable leadership that is transparent, responsive and fosters shared commitment towards addressing inequities.
