Juno is a support and advocacy organisation working across Melbourne. We provide gender-informed services that empower women and non-binary people across the homelessness and family violence systems. We advocate to raise awareness of the unique issues women and non-binary people face and change the systems and structures which contribute to gendered poverty, homelessness and family violence.
