Coverdale Centre has been in operation as a community-based agency since 1980, though has been involved in working with women in conflict with the law since 1923. The centre adheres to women-centred principles and functions from a team-oriented approach comprised of two social workers, one therapist, and one addiction counsellor. Coverdale operates on a continuum of care commencing from the moment a woman enters the criminal justice system, through to incarceration and release. There are no time restrictions placed upon help accorded; a woman can access the centre indefinitely. Services include court support, family violence and addiction counselling, mental health services, and child care assistance.
