We have seven suites available for women and their children to live
in for up to nine months.
Residents are protected by an extensive security network that
includes keeping the location of
the house strictly confidential. Counselling and support services
are provided and women are encouraged to upgrade their skills to
achieve self sufficiency and a higher quality of life.
We have a strong membership and two Boards:
-
Alpha House Project Board - is responsible for the
maintenance and running of the house.
-
Alpha House Foundation Board - acts as the fundraising wing
for the organization.
Our mandate is to not only provide a place for families to live
while transitioning away from violence, but to work closely with the
women to build back their self-confidence and self-reliance so that
they can live independently and flourish as examples to themselves,
their children and other women being abused.
We are also deeply concerned about children who have experienced
family violence and provide specific children’s counselling to help
them work through the trauma while living in the safe environment of
Alpha House.
