Jacaranda is a project of Bayside Women’s Shelter, as they sought to offer a public facing option for women to seek information and support.
To further this, they are organising fortnightly information sessions and workshops on subjects that would be of interest to a range of women in the local community, things that would entice them to visit Jacaranda and perhaps connect with other service offerings. Their workshop sessions run from 1-2.30pm on Wednesday afternoons.
