Every girl deserves a new dawn

Safe Shelter

safe shelterFGMearly marriagesafetyNarok

A secure home for girls who are victims of FGM or early marriage, with psycho-social support and a path back to their dreams.

A girl cannot learn, heal or plan a future without a safe place to live. Our shelter gives girls who have been cut, or who have escaped early marriage, a secure and caring home.

The shelter is more than a roof. Each girl receives meals, medical referral where needed and daily care from trained staff.

How the shelter helps

  • A safe bed, food and clean water.
  • Psycho-social support to help girls heal from trauma.
  • Guidance and counselling, one to one and in small groups.
  • Return to school or entry into a skills programme.
  • Care for the children of young mothers who live with us.

We treat every girl with respect and privacy. Her story belongs to her, and we share it only with people who need to know in order to keep her safe.

When a girl is ready, we help her reconnect with her family and community. Our aim is a safe return, not a forced one.
