Leaving an abusive or violent individual?
The Cridge Transition House is a safe place for women with or without children escaping violence or abuse in their homes. Abuse can be emotional, psychological or physical.
The number to call is 250 479-3963 any time of day or night.
We’re here to help. We can provide:
- Safe emergency shelter
- Supportive counselling
- Connections to community supports
- Support meeting the needs of children
- An opportunity to support and be supported by other women in the same situation.
- If you are not sure if you are ready to leave but want to know more about the help that is available, call our outreach worker at (250) 479-3963.
Up to 80% of women who have been in a violent relationship have received at least one brain injury from their partner. For more information: https://cridge.org/ipv-bi/
You and your child deserve to be safe.
NOTE: The Cridge Transition House for Women was formerly called “Hill House.” The same phone number applies – (250) 479-3963
Funded by the provincial government and private donations.
We gratefully acknowledge the support of the Canadian Women’s Foundation, the Women and Gender Equality Fund, and the
Government of Canada for their support.
