House of Care Safe House

Much-needed support for safe house

A teacher by profession, caretaker Anna Aurere said they ensure women at the safe house are taught basic hygiene, how to keep their children and homes clean, counselled and encouraged to pray.

The June Valley safe house in Port Moresby has been open to survivors and victims of FSV since July 2019 and has accommodated and cared for 15 women and their children.

“We only look after the high risk survivors who are referred to us from our partners. It is a church and family run safe house,” said Aurere.
