Transitional Housing

Orana operates four transitional houses for women and children, providing a stepping stone to rebuilding their lives. Orana staff deliver a range of services to these families to increase their capacity to live safely and independently in the community.

With the current rental crisis, demand for our housing services is steadily growing. Orana has set a goal to acquire four more transitional houses by 2023.
