We are committed to a vision of a safe and secure community without abuse. Our goals for the past year have been: Protect and shelter those impacted by abuse, Prevent abuse and re-occurrence through education and programming, Build skills necessary to remove the barriers that impede independence, and Collaborate with community partners. Strathmore Shelter is a place where people can rest, reflect, and gather energy to take the steps they need to make safe and healthy choices in the future. We are not here to judge. Our role is to help clients to be as safe as possible. We are a short term shelter (up to 3 weeks) but we try to have a welcoming and home-like setting, and our outreach services are available to clients in the community. We offer shelter, food, clothing, crisis counseling, referral and advocacy. The Wheatland Crisis Society also provides educational and community support services in the Strathmore area.
