The Safe House provides crisis accommodation for up to 80 women and children escaping violence at home. The women meet regularly with a counsellor and are given psychiatric and medical care and legal aid. They are offered skills training in areas like administration, child care and tailoring so they can find employment and support their families. For the children, there is a pre-school on-site and home-schooling resources.

The Bangalore Women’s Safe House also raises public awareness and improves support networks and community education about domestic violence.

The Safe House is run by Christian women who provide care to women and children regardless of race, caste, creed or religion.
