WILLIE’S PLACE / NIGAN

Willie’s Place / Nigan is a respite centre with a high level of acceptability for men and women in situations of homelessness, vulnerability and disconnected from society, their family and community. As an alternative means of integration, Willie’s Place/Nigan provides a unique socialisation environment and a bridge to eventually get off the streets.

The objective of Willie’s Place / Nigan is to reinforce the safety net surrounding highly vulnerable persons through a culturally relevant and safe intervention approach as well as assistance along the paths specific to their needs.
Nigan is specifically designed for women who are vulnerable and/or marginalised from society. A counterpart to Willie’s Place, Nigan offers women a safe respite environment.

Willie’s Place / Nigan provides support and assistance services, as well as substance abuse, health and justice psychosocial follow-ups, among others.
