Living Room
The living room is another common space for gathering, relaxing, and occasional planned activities. Weekly house meetings with all residents and staff take place here, as do birthday parties and farewell celebrations for clients leaving the shelter. The living room has a phone for incoming and outgoing client calls, a TV/VCR/DVD player for everyone to share, and a community bulletin board with information about activities offered at the Safehouse, events in the community, and resources that might be helpful in assisting the families to move forward. The living room is a great place for women and children to read, play, and relax together.
