Yorgum provides trauma-informed and culturally appropriate community-based healing, counselling, therapy and support to Aboriginal children, young people and adults in the Perth metropolitan region to recover from harmful impacts of child sexual abuse and/or family domestic violence.

Yorgum provides in-home practical support to parents and families who are referred by the Department of Communities to enhance the safety of their children so they can remain safe at home.

We also support families who are working through a reunification process.

Yorgum provides an integrated service to Aboriginal families, particularly vulnerable and disadvantaged families, to improve child wellbeing and development, safety and family functioning, and to help build stronger, more resilient families and communities.

Yorgum provides social and emotional wellbeing (SEWB) services including culturally secure information, support and advice to Aboriginal communities particularly those affected by trauma, grief and loss, mental health challenges and at risk of self-harm.

This service is for young people (Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal) aged from 6 to 24 years of age who have been exposed to or at risk of family and/or domestic violence. This service is available to all young people, including young women and men, culturally and linguistically diverse young people, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander young people, LGBTIQA+ young people and young parents.
