Emergency aid, counselling,
support & group meetings
We offer anonymous, free and non-binding counselling and, if necessary, accommodation in a women’s refuge.
About us
The Cottbus women’s refuge offers women affected by violence and their children protection and help in the form of temporary accommodation, counselling and help for self-help. In an atmosphere of trust and acceptance, those affected should find peace and quiet. Detached from the previous violent situation, they are given the opportunity to develop a new perspective on life so that they can look to the future with self-determination.
