Mission Statement

Cristina's House of Hope

Our long-term goals for Cristina's House of Hope are to set up safe houses in our community like the 'Ronald McDonald House’ model, for women and children in crises from sexual abuse, as their first port of call for accommodation and support.

We know that childhood sexual abuse has become an epidemic with long term health issues that has reached a critical point.

We need to address these real life issues as we would any other sickness or infectious epidemic in our community, instead of looking to fix or band aid only the symptoms that come from childhood sexual abuse.

Through holding fundraising events, radio and television campaigns, the sale of books donated by Cristina and cards that have been printed especially for us will give a voice to victims who have survived this hidden crime.

Most victims of sexual abuse don't report the crime committed against them. Help us to give survivors a voice, a safe place to live in with dignity and the support they deserve.

Cristina is calling for expression of interest and support from the public, professionals and other similar organizations to work together on this project.

The house plans for Cristina’s House of Hope have been designed and donated to us by G J Gardner Homes & Jason Building Designs.
