Interim Auspices
In recent times there has been an increasing demand for the NSW Women's Refuge Working Party to take on the Interim auspice of women's refuges who are experiencing difficulties. The need has sometimes been the result of the resignation of thes Community based Management Committee or Broader Collective. The broad range of experience of delegates has proven beneficial in these processes. The NSW Women's Refuge Working Party has maintained a commitment to involvement at this level in an effort to ensure the continuation of feminist women's agencies with a primary focus on domestic violence.
The NSW Women's Refuge Working Party Interim Auspice Management operates under the following Principles.
• In line with NSW Women's Refuge Movement philosophies and guidelines.
• Promotion of effective management and review processes
• In line with "An Open Door" access and equity manual of the NSW WRM.
• Involvement of relevant interest groups including other relevant agencies and advocacy groups.
• Culturally inclusive.
• Has regard for Program standards.
• Acknowledges the diversity of agencies and examples of good practices.
• Has regard for relevant legislation.
In all cases, the refuges have evolved back into community based organisations within a twelve to eighteen month period
