Our Core Principals
Respect for the pain and trauma suffered by Survivors and their yearning to have their voices listened to and heard.
Support for efforts by Survivors to move on with their lives through developing new skills, changing life styles, connecting with their families and coping with legacy issues such as addictive behaviour.
A haven where Survivors can feel at home with others who have had similar experiences.
Learning is a life enhancing experience no matter what age but it is especially beneficial for those who as children missed out on the benefits of education due to abuse, child labour or family traumas. Classes are designed to match the special needs of our people.
We provide a learning environment that offers a message of hope and encouragement to develop new skills and to generate a sense of self worth and confidence to cope with other challenges in life.
Over time Survivors have developed trust in associates, family and others.
