Agencies for South West Accommodation

Details

Agencies for South West Accommodation (ASWA) was the new name given to Bunyap Inc. ASWA continued to provide supported accommodation services to young people who were homeless or at risk of homelessness throughout the south west of Western Australia. In 2011, ASWA became known as Accordwest.

Agencies for South West Accommodation (ASWA) was new name given to Bunyap Inc. on 13 February 1997.

ASWA was funded through the Youth Supported Accommodation Program (YSAAP) from 1997 to 2009, when it then received funding through the National Affordable Housing Agreement (NAHA). Some young people may have been referred by child welfare authorities, but self-referrals were possible under this funding program. In the early 2000s, ASWA was reported (Signposts, 2004 p.595) as being able to accommodate up to 15 young people in emergency, medium and long term accommodation.

In 2011, ASWA changed its name to Accordwest.
