Domestic Violence Shelter

A domestic violence shelter is a safe place that offers temporary housing and support for individuals, often women and children, who are escaping abusive relationships. These shelters provide essential services such as meals, counseling, legal assistance, and assistance in finding permanent housing. The aim is to help survivors regain their independence and rebuild their lives away from the abuser. Shelters prioritize safety and confidentiality, creating a supportive environment where residents can heal and access resources needed to move forward. They play a crucial role in addressing the issue of domestic violence in communities.
