Safe Arbour’s vision, mission, and values

Safe Arbour’s Vision

A world in which women and children have healed from the damaging impacts of domestic abuse, and are free to achieve their full potentials.

Safe Arbour’s Mission

To move closer to our vision, Safe Arbour creates an antidote to the dynamics of domestic abuse (DA) by:

• Reducing isolation

• Improving self-esteem and alleviating shame

• Increasing survivors’ independence and autonomy

• Repairing mother-child attachments

 Safe Arbour’s Values

• Women and children’s right to be physically and emotionally safe is our top priority.

• We define domestic abuse as a feminist and human rights issue.

• We value survivors, both adults and children, for their strengths, abilities, and contributions.

• We do not judge survivors or perceive them as damaged.

• We value sharing power between facilitators, women, and children

• We believe that every aspect of the programme should be respectful, nurturing, and contribute to healing.
