A key service, AVVEC offers refuge and psychosocial support to women, with or without children. With five family rooms in total, our refuge is available to victims for a maximum period of six months.

The lodging costs are partially financed by Geneva state and municipal subsidies. This allows us to offer rates among the lowest of all the refuges in the Canton of Geneva: CHF 45 per night for women, and CHF 28 for children (rates established by the General Hospice). However, in reality, it is rare that a victim in need of refuge is able to pay these rates, notably in the absence of social benefits. In such cases, we ask for a contribution of 20% of their income. Even this, for some, is simply beyond their means.

Your donation will fill the gap between what the woman can pay and the price of the stay !
