Sanctuary of Hope: Transitional Housing for Families Escaping Domestic Violence
Domestic violence is the leading cause of homelessness for families, as many victims are forced to flee abusive homes without a safe place to turn. The impact of abuse is compounded by economic instability, often created or exacerbated by abusers.
At A Safe Place, our Sanctuary of Hope Scattered-Site Transitional Housing Program provides safe, affordable housing, along with critical counseling and supportive services, for families in the greater Chicagoland area who have escaped domestic violence.
Sanctuary of Hope Offers:
- Safe, Affordable Housing: Families receive housing in scattered-site locations throughout the Chicagoland area, with ongoing support from our counselors to help clients establish and achieve their educational, financial, and employment goals.
- Rental & Utility Assistance: Survivors receive financial assistance to cover rent and utilities, easing the burden of economic instability and providing a stable foundation for rebuilding their lives.
- Comprehensive Support Services: Our program includes personalized safety and service plans tailored to meet the needs of each family, along with access to financial workshops, life skills education, and an array of services at A Safe Place, including counseling, legal advocacy, and support groups.
- Financial Security for the Future: Participants are provided with a personal savings account to help ensure long-term financial stability.
- Family-Centered Support: We offer supervised family visitations and mentoring programs to strengthen family connections and support survivors in their journey to independence.
Eligibility and Non-Discrimination Policy:
The Sanctuary of Hope Housing Program is open to all survivors of domestic violence, and we do not discriminate against applicants based on race, color, creed, religion, sex, national origin, age, familial status, ancestry, unfavorable military discharge, marital status, receipt of governmental assistance, or handicap. We also do not discriminate against handicapped individuals in admission, access, or treatment within our federally assisted programs.
