Transitional Support Program

Our Approach

Separating from an abusive partner can be an overwhelming and dangerous time. In addition to counselling, there are a lot of practical issues where we can offer support. We focus first on helping women stay safe. We provide referrals to shelters, lawyers and can help you complete applications for housing or financial assistance. We can also sometimes go with you to court or to legal appointments.

The Transitional Support Program is offered in partnership with Interval House of Ottawa
