About SafeHouse
The Mission of SafeHouse is to provide a clean and sober living community to empower homeless women who have been working in prostitution to attain needed skills and resources in order to grow and become independent and self-sufficient members of society.
San Francisco SafeHouse is the only residential program of its kind in San Francisco, and only one of five such programs in the entire country that seeks to provide women leaving prostitution with the intensive social support, therapeutic treatment, linkages to medical and mental health services and housing for up to 18 months. We offer a continuum of care that allows intensive case management and access to resources to help heal mind, body and soul. SafeHouse women have become dynamic members of society and move through life empowered as individuals.
We have served over 150 women in the past 9 years and have successfully created a safe space for women to heal. Over 30 of these women have stayed the full 18 months and have graduated our program and are now members of our Alumni Group. SafeHouse is an integral part of San Francisco service providers in that we serve a unique special population in addressing gender specific trauma, homelessness and substance abuse issues. To that end, we empower women to live a dignified life, build on their assets and help them to reach their full potential.
