4Voices – Inala
4 Voices works with women facing violence, homelessness, and loneliness.
We invite women to connect with us, to share their fears, sadness, hopes, and goals.
We listen without judgment, and through these conversations, we build a partnership to create change.
We do this by showing up where women most need our support, with digitally equipped vans and phone support to help them connect socially, digitally, in their community, and in their employment.
It all begins by simply sharing a cuppa.

Community Healing Group
The Community Healing Group is a new social group hosted at HUB Neighbourhood Centre, Inala. The group will focus on empowering natural helpers and community allies to gain new knowledge, skills, and confidence in supporting everyday people who may be experiencing domestic and family violence, as well as changing community attitudes towards violence, making new connections, and participating in mindful arts and crafts.
This group will bring together participants weekly. The group will mainly involve a facilitated mindful craft activity (which may include collage, painting, jewellery making, weaving, etc.) During this activity, participants will get to know each other, answer questions, share concerns, and reflect together. The group will introduce educational modules around domestic and family violence, which may include topics such as responding to disclosures, bystander interventions, healing and self-care, and changing community attitudes. The group does not provide professional counselling, mediation, legal or other professional advice. Our scope is to provide support, education and promote creative thinking about support options and solutions.
If you have any questions or need further information, please reach out to our team at hello@hubcommunity.org.au or (07) 3372 3770.
Our centre is located at 79 Poinsettia St, Inala 4077
