Safe Home - Support for Domestic Violence Survivors
Safe Home is a vital initiative dedicated to providing comprehensive support for individuals affected by domestic violence. We recognise that survivors often face significant emotional, physical, and financial challenges, and our project is designed to offer them a safe space, resources, and tools to rebuild their lives with dignity and independence.
Key Objectives:
- Emergency Shelter and Safety:
We provide immediate safe housing for survivors, offering them a secure environment free from abuse. Our shelters are equipped with basic amenities and a supportive community to help them heal. - Counseling and Psychological Support:
Survivors are offered access to professional counselors and psychologists who help them process trauma, regain confidence, and rebuild self-esteem through therapy and support groups. - Legal Assistance and Advocacy:
Safe Home provides legal aid to survivors, assisting them with filing complaints, obtaining restraining orders, and navigating the legal system to ensure justice and protection. - Skill Development and Economic Empowerment:
We offer vocational training, career counseling, and job placement services to help survivors gain financial independence and secure stable livelihoods. - Awareness and Prevention Campaigns:
Safe Home runs community outreach programs to raise awareness about domestic violence, its warning signs, and available support systems. We also work to break the stigma around reporting abuse. - Holistic Support for Children:
Recognising the impact of domestic violence on children, we provide specialised support, including counselling, educational assistance, and recreational activities to help them recover and thrive.
Impact:
Safe Home aims to create a society where no one feels trapped in an abusive environment. By addressing the immediate needs of survivors and empowering them to lead independent, fulfilling lives, we work towards breaking the cycle of violence and fostering a culture of respect and equality.
