The Ministry of Social Development and Family Services has opened a $4.4 million transitional home in Penal which it said could benefit up to five families, all at once, and help them through any unforeseen hardships that may befall them.
At the official handover ceremony Social Development Minister Donna Cox said the facility would especially benefit disaster victims.
"This immediate support is crucial in preventing further trauma and ensuring the well-being of those affected. This facility embodies our goal to promote resilience for all, empower families, reduce poverty and create a high-performance, client-centred organisation that can respond to the most urgent needs of our citizens."
