Mission description

Over 200,000 people suffer domestic violence in France yearly. Facing insufficient emergency shelter solutions, we created "Un abri qui sauve des vies" (A Shelter That Saves Lives) to mobilize citizen solidarity. You can help by becoming a host—offering a room or entire home as temporary refuge to violence victims, playing an essential role in their recovery. Through this citizen hosting, hosts welcome victims into their homes, providing a safe and caring environment.
