FAQs

What is a Transitional Home?

It is a safe residence for you and your children to go to if you are in an unsafe home environment, in an abusive relationship, homeless or at risk of homelessness or simply in need of a place of safety. Transitional Homes are NOT emergency shelters, we do not operate 24/7 and recommend contacting 911 or 211 for immediate help. Transition homes are usually regular houses; however the address is not available to the public to ensure the safety of the women and children staying there.

Can my children stay with me in the Homes?

Yes, you can bring your children. They will be required to follow the Home’s guidelines.

How long can I stay in the Home?

The duration of stay is determined on a case by case basis, however it is usually between 1-3 months.

Where is the house located?

To ensure complete safety and security, our location and address are confidential and are only given on a need-to-know basis to those who have signed a confidentiality agreement.

Do I have to pay anything to stay at Nisa Homes?

Accommodation at Nisa Homes is free, however if you are receiving a shelter allowance through Income Assistance, that amount must be paid to Nisa Homes.
