Alice House: Supporting Women in Crisis

Imagine a world in which every person can live a life without fear or threat of physical, sexual, emotional, financial, social, or spiritual abuse. That’s the world Alice House strives every day to create; providing opportunities for women and their children to forge new lives - free from intimate partner violence. Long-term safe housing is the foundation, but this transformational support is about so much more. In this episode of The Soul Booth, Nancy sits down with Alice House Executive Director Heather Byrne to learn more about this vital organization and the profound role that it plays in changing lives for the better. Long-time Alice House supporter Maggie MacGillvray joins in the conversation with her perspective on supporting women in crisis. —- Are you in Halifax on October 12th, 2019?
