WHAT WE DO

The Warrior Woman Foundation provides support services for vulnerable young Australian women. Our flagship program, the Young Warrior Woman Program is a mentoring and psycho-educational program which provides connection, education, and support to young women 15-25 years of age transitioning from out of home care into independent living. Based on the Self Determination Theory, the Young Warrior Woman Program is designed to reduce the stress involved in leaving care, learning to live autonomously, and preparing for adulthood.

Connection

Connection

We provide a safe and welcoming space for the young women we support, so that they can share, learn, heal, and grow. We believe that healing can happen through connection, so we link each young woman into a diverse network of community minded women who provide ongoing support and a plethora of life experiences, resources, and opportunities. The Warrior Woman Foundation endeavours to work in collaboration with as many community and business leaders in each local government area to strengthen support services for young women in each local community.
 

 

Support

Support

We believe that education and employment are key to a young woman’s independence, but for many young vulnerable women who have had traumatic experiences it is equally important to address and nurture confidence, self-esteem, and self-worth first. Therefore, we provide psychoeducational sessions facilitated by a highly skilled and experienced team of trauma informed psychotherapists who specialise in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).


 



Education

Education

We teach the necessary life skills for young women to succeed in everyday life. These can be simple things like how to open a bank account or get a tax file number. Our mission is to empower young women to become strong independent women capable of taking their place in the world, so we believe it’s important for us to adopt a “teach a young woman to fish” approach. So, we are there to support and guide them through every step of the way knowing that true empowerment comes from them doing it themselves. Our goal is for every young woman who comes into our care, to leave with a strong sense of identity, confidence, and purpose.
