In-take Sanctuary

A warm welcome and sense of safety are integral to helping women, youth and children make the transition from the streets to our shelter. The overwhelming majority of the women and youth we serve at Lotus House are victims of physical or sexual abuse, domestic violence, trafficking or other severe traumas, usually starting in childhood. Homelessness itself is traumatic, puts women and children at risk of further victimization, and makes families sick, as they experience dislocation from home and community, loss of important roles, social isolation and feelings of helplessness. Our in-take sanctuary is their first introduction to Lotus House and so we are striving to create a loving refuge in this special space where tears transform to hopes for a better way of life. Your help makes this possible, with a security desk and reception, comfortable seating, soft music, soothing aromatherapy, and a play corner for the children.
