Our trained counsellors provide information, support and advocacy on many of the issues and concerns that face women who are experiencing abuse.
Abused women need to know their legal rights, where to find housing, how to get financial assistance and where to get help for themselves and their children.
Staff at My Friend's House understand what women need and are ready to help guide women through each step at their own pace.
In person or over the phone women will receive help at no charge to them and it will be confidential.
