Shelter

In shelters victims of violence get support, guidance and counselling as well as assistance and information for dealing with practical arrangements. The shelter is a home-like environment where victims find a refuge from violence and where they get help to stop the violence. The shelter has staff available 24 hours a day and victims can go there either on their own initiative or on referral. It is possible to go there anonymously. Length of stay is always individual. Staying in a shelter does not cost anything for the client.
