Our Purpose
Women’s Aid is a national, feminist organisation working to prevent and address the impact of domestic violence and abuse including coercive control, in Ireland since 1974.
We do this by:
- advocating, influencing, training, and campaigning for effective responses to reduce the scale and impacts of domestic abuse on women and children in Ireland
- providing high quality, specialised, integrated, support services.
Our Vision
Women’s Aid’s vision is an equal Ireland, with zero tolerance of domestic abuse and all other forms of violence against women.
Our Values
- Courage
- Cooperation
- Empowerment
- Equality
- Inclusivity

Our Strategic Priorities
Our strategic priorities are based on a strong dedication to the women we serve and an unwavering focus on bringing about the social changes in Ireland that will deliver our vision. During the period 2021-24, we have framed our plan around three strategic priorities:
- Creating Social Equality
- Building and Nurturing Effective Partnerships
- Continually Strengthening Capability and Expertise
