Why it is important
Women experiencing housing insecurity and homelessness have different housing needs than men. By making small changes to how you select, build and manage community housing properties, you can improve the life and housing outcomes for your women residents.

What does the assessment cover?
The Women's Liveability Assessment is based on YWCA's Women's Housing Framework - a sector-first model that identifies best practice approaches to designing, acquiring, and operating housing for women. This is based on findings taken from women-centred literature and learnings from those with lived experience of housing insecurity and homelessness. The framework and assessment include four key domains of impact with respective desired resident outcomes.
