Transitional
and Housing Support Program
The goal of our
program is to provide women with practical and emotional assistance
for a smooth transition from shelter or an abusive relationship
to violence-free lives in the community.
The program can
help women beyond their initial crisis by assisting them in
identifying what steps are needed to achieve their short and
long term goals. Our program focus is to promote safety, independence
and empowerment for the women we serve.
We
can help by:
- Creation
of a personal safety plan
- Providing
emotional support
- Education
on abuse issues
- Assistance
with housing applications
- Walking
through the process of applying for financial assistance
- Follow-up
and support after leaving the shelter or beginning
an independent life in the community
