The RIDE is a family-friendly fundraising ride/walk where we gather for local charities that support people who are seeking hope, safety, + freedom all across Canada. Join us Saturday, Oct 4, 2025!
About SOFIA House
At SOFIA House, we strive to provide comprehensive services to families who have experienced domestic violence. Our first priority is to provide a safe environment through the provision of 20 furnished apartments. Along with the buildings’ locations being kept confidential, SOFIA House offers an added measure of safety through security cameras, secure entrances, and on-site staff.
In addition to safety, we also provide supportive counselling services which are designed to address the many emotional and practical challenges that families experience when exiting unsafe situations. Our Women’s Program Coordinators work one-on-one with residents through a trauma-informed, women-centered approach to providing support, setting goals, and working towards the future. This may include helping families connect with resources in the community and providing advocacy and support with legal, medical, and financial matters.
Weekly group programming also provides an opportunity for women to connect and learn from each others’ experiences. Children also have access to individual and group programming offered by our Children’s Program Coordinators with the support of our dedicated volunteers.
Join us for the Ride for Refuge and help SOFIA House continue providing safety, support, and hope to families rebuilding their lives after domestic violence.
