The History



Lorraine’s Place was founded by Together We Can in October of 2019 as Victoria’s first Women Sober Living Residence and accepts women after completion from graduating from partner primary care centres.


Lorraine's Place is a safe environment where women can return to work, attend school or volunteer in the community. Those who stay in a supportive, transitional housing community tend to achieve higher success at long-term sobriety while rebuilding routine, schedule, and trust with their family. Each resident attends outside support and in-house meetings, can attend extracurricular programming, and lives with our on-site manager, providing 24/7 support.



Services



Counselling



Lorraine's Place offers additional counseling services in a nurturing and supportive atmosphere, designed especially for women seeking to explore personal growth and overcome life's challenges.



Therapies



We offers a wide array of therapeutic services, blending traditional and modern methods, to support the complete well-being of our community, with a special focus on the unique needs of women.



Community

"I was able to stay at Lorraine's Place for as long as I needed to reach my next step of independent living. Lorraine's Place offered a structured program while allowing time for me to carry out other aspects of my recovery journey and personal life. I am forever grateful!"

"I came from Ontario, straight from treatment to Lorraines house with no idea what my next steps were going to be for my life. Being welcomed into the house with so many women i could relate with was absolutely amazing. The structure of the house along with our weekly chores was an adjustment I got used to and definitely needed to progress with my sobriety, mental health, and responsibility. Coming here was crucial for my life moving forward, I am so grateful"

"Living at Lorraine's Place taught me so much and helped me to stay clean and healthy. From treatment to second stage house, I wouldn't be where I am today without lorraines place. The accountability was exceedingly helpful, I had to pursue my own accountability aswell though. The rules and the chores and the expectations that our set for the women like me who come into the house are nothing short of teaching life skills and moving forward into the new stages of life. And I am foverver grateful."
