Our Services

Burnaby Safe House (BSH) is a second stage shelter which may provide accommodation for a period of up to 6-weeks (short term), or 6-months (long term) for single women and women with children who are fleeing domestic violence. We accept applications from first stage shelter workers that have been completed in collaboration with the applicants.
