The concept of our transitional
unit is that of a therapeutic community.
This model is the template for a highly structured program,
which aims to achieve behavioral and cognitive changes for our
women. It is a
comprehensive, therapeutic and educational program designed to
incorporate awareness, accountability, responsibility, and
empowerment of women in a protected positive atmosphere.
Services for Women
The goal of this program is to
help victims of domestic violence obtain knowledge that will
provide the framework for women to understand the problems that
they have experienced while providing the skills that are
necessary for them to lead more disciplined, productive and safe
lifestyles. It is
designed to prepare women and families, who are homeless due to
domestic violence, to become independent and re-enter the
mainstream of society.
