Southern Women's Group Incorporated

Southern Women's Group Inc. (SWG) is a feminist, charitable organisation committed to the empowerment of women, particularly those who are marginalised and living in poverty. SWG's vision is ‘all women are safe, respected, empowered, and supported to flourish’ and our purpose is ‘to provide quality services, support and advocacy that empower women on the South Coast to live free from violence and discrimination, and to achieve their personal goals’. Legal Aid NSW funds SWG to operate the South Coast Women's Domestic Violence Court Advocacy Scheme (SCWDVCAS), which has expanded over time to provide services in 3 LGA’s, enabling women experiencing domestic violence to use the justice system to protect their families from further violence.
