WHIN is a leading feminist, not-for-profit organisation advancing the health, safety and wellbeing of women and gender diverse people.
Founded in 1991, Melbourne's north is our heart. As part of Victoria's Women's Health Services Network, our work extends statewide and has national influence.
We work across the full spectrum of health, safety and wellbeing, from health promotion and primary prevention to family violence leadership, systems advocacy and strengthening responses to gender-based violence.
Follow WHIN to stay connected. Join a north where women and gender diverse people live free from violence, with voice, choice and power to lead healthy, safe and fulfilling lives.
Acknowledgement of Country
WHIN acknowledges Victorian Aboriginal people as the Traditional Owners of the land on which we provide our services, the Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung people of the Kulin Nation. We pay our respects to their Elders past and present.
We acknowledge that Aboriginal sovereignty was never given up and that we stand on stolen land. We are committed to Aboriginal self-determination and to supporting Treaty and truth-telling processes.
We recognise the ongoing leadership of Aboriginal communities in advancing gender equality and the health, safety and wellbeing of women and gender diverse people. As First Peoples, Aboriginal Victorians are best placed to determine a culturally appropriate path to these for their communities.
