Our Outreach Clinics

Outreach Service

Not all women experiencing domestic abuse need to avail of refuge. Clare Haven Services offers an outreach service throughout the county. At an outreach clinic, you can talk to a support worker about any concerns that you may have about your relationship and the options available to you. You may want to talk about what is happening in your relationship, what steps you can take to keep yourself safe if you want to stay in the relationship, or what your options are if your decide to leave.

Our support workers are qualified and experienced. They will listen to you, provide you with information and help you to decide what you would like to do.
