Women's Shelter Please Help

[Frisbeetarian]

I have come into acquaintance with a woman who needs a shelter for week. Can anyone please provide me with the location and ways to contact a womens shelter in Lebanon?

Thank you.

Does she need protection you mean, is she persecuted?

Its not like she needs simple accommodation?

Thanks bro.

I called Kafa, but they gave me this weird answer that they are a relief center but not a shelter. More sources are appreciated.

Lebanon does not have a shelter to accomodate battered women unfortunatly !

however i can help you with the name of one place i know but all will depend on the situation/problem of the person and her needs . is she subject of domestic violence ? .....

" Deir-er-Raai es Saleh" ("good shepherd sisters" "soeurs du bon pasteur") in Ain saadé (metn) they are there since 1975 and help women specialy single mothers or unmaried pregnant girls .....
