Tiivistelmä
A shelter is a 24-hour crisis work unit that is free of charge for the client. A person or family experiencing domestic violence or the threat of domestic violence can go to the unit on their own initiative or under the guidance of an authority or another party, also anonymously if necessary. A client of a shelter for victims of domestic violence will receive immediate help in a crisis, 24/7 secure living, and psychosocial support, advice and guidance related to their acute situation. Shelters for victims of domestic violence have been special services funded by the state in Finland since 2015. THL is responsible for the guidance, assessment, development and national coordination of shelter services for victims of domestic violence. The development of shelter services is guided by programme for the development of shelters for victims of domestic violence, the implementation of which will be carried out in cooperation with THL, shelter service providers and stakeholders of shelters. The content of the development programme address the development needs highlighted in the Istanbul Convention, the Act on Shelter Services, National Quality Recommendations for Shelter Services, the Children in Shelters for Victims of Domestic Violence quality recommendation and shelter work. The aim of the development measures is to ensure nationally high-quality shelter services.
