Welcome to Jireh House.
A Safe Place

Jireh House is a welcoming, supportive crisis accommodation service for women and children in Tasmania.

Jireh House has been operating since the 1980s when a small group of local volunteers, motivated by their Christian faith, began providing shelter and support to women and children escaping family violence.

Today, Jireh House continues this mission, with a dedicated and professional team of staff here to assist women and children experiencing homelessness.

“I’m now living a fulfilling life with my daughters. I’m glad I found the courage”

Private, comfortable accommodation

Women and children staying at Jireh House have their own private, secure accommodation that is fully furnished.

All of the units and bedsits have private bathrooms and a kitchen/kitchenette. There are also communal areas including a laundry, lounge, relaxing garden, and playground.

We can supply you with basic items you may need during your stay such as bedding, towels and toiletries. You are also welcome to bring a few of your own personal items such as photos or a special pillow/bedspread.

With fair and affordable rent, Jireh House aims to help free you of financial worry during this time.

We want everyone who stays at Jireh House to feel safe and at home.
