Shelter Makeovers

Our Shelter Makeover program transforms shelters into welcoming, healing-centered environments for survivors of domestic violence. Through collaboration with volunteers, donors, and community partners, we redesign shelter spaces to provide comfort, and dignity for individuals and families in transition.

This program focuses on creating trauma-informed, thoughtfully designed spaces that support survivors’ mental health and overall well-being. Your environment plays a crucial role in healing—calming colors, organized spaces, and intentional design can reduce stress, improve focus, and foster a sense of security. Research suggests that well-designed spaces can enhance confidence and motivation, encouraging survivors to take steps toward independence.

By integrating warmth, and functionality, we aim to make shelters feel not just like temporary housing—but sanctuaries for healing and recovery. Every transformed space is an opportunity to provide survivors with a stable foundation for rebuilding their lives.
