What We Do

Our mission and primary responsibility is to provide direct services to persons experiencing domestic violence.

We are committed to raise awareness about domestic abuse and relationship violence to groups in schools, parishes, and the communities in the Vancouver Archdiocese through a process of education appropriate for each group. Volunteer couples also take part as an awareness component of the Archdiocesan Marriage Preparation programs.

Our volunteers, after completing a 10 week training program offered twice a year:

  maintain an abuse helpline

  provide individual support

  offer safe housing when available

  provide access to spiritual, legal, financial and psychological resources

  educate people about domestic abuse and relationship violence

  give presentations at the Archdiocesan Marriage Preparation course
