2011 - Bankstown boost, and tackling homelessness
Bankstown OWN sets up links with the Bankstown Wellness Centre.
Northside OWN is launched and is also closely linked with Northside Wellness. The group has a strong emphasis on arts and crafts.
OWN collaborates on a project with Homelessness NSW and the St Vincent de Paul Society on the study It Could be You: female, single, older and homeless.
History is herstory too.

We acknowledge the sorrow of the Stolen Generations and the impacts of colonisation on Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
