OUR MISSION
at Ellested Kvindekrisecenter and Ellested Kvindeforsorgshjem are:
- To help change the impact on women and children who are victims of violence.
- To reduce feelings of guilt, shame and paralysis in women who have experienced violence.
- To be a preventive offer through knowledge gathering and knowledge development, so that the target group is helped at the earliest possible stage.
- That the house stands on 2 legs:
- The house with a sharp awareness of methods and work processes.
- A social professional development center (with knowledge we move and evolve).
- Establish close cooperation with the municipalities and agree on flexible solutions for the woman and child
- To increase the employment rate for battered women.
WHY
- Because the consequences of violence have a huge impact on children's future - well into adolescence and adulthood.
- Because no human being should have their identity shattered with feelings of guilt, shame and paralysis.
"IF WE DON'T CONSCIOUSLY TRY TO BUILD EACH OTHER UP, WE UNCONSCIOUSLY BREAK EACH OTHER DOWN".
