HomeFront’s clients are referred to our organization by the Calgary Police Service.

If you or someone you know is being abused and is in immediate danger, call 911. If you’re unsure of what to do, there are a number of resources in Calgary that provide safe, confidential and inclusive support for anyone with questions or is concerned that they are in a relationship where there is domestic violence. Visit our get help section (link) for information on resources in Calgary.

For more information on support and appropriate referrals, please contact 403.206.2100

HomeFront will be in contact with you directly after a charge has been laid. Your Case Manager will introduce themselves and our services. HomeFront services are completely voluntary and free of charge. Your Case Manager will then act as your support and advocate for the duration of the court proceedings and beyond if required.

HomeFront Case Manager’s recognize that each person’s journey is different and require special care and attention. Case Manager’s provide a non-judgemental ear to listen. They can provide safety plans, resources, information and referrals, or anything you might need during this difficult time. They will ensure that you understand the court proceedings, and that your wishes are taken into consideration by the court. Your Case Manager is there for you.

Please give us a call at 403-206-2100 ext. 243 and we will direct you to your case manager for support.

The Calgary Domestic Violence Collective (CDVD) – which HomeFront is a part of – defines domestic violence as:

“The attempt, act or intent of someone within a relationship, where the relationship is characterized by intimacy, dependency or trust, to intimidate either by threat or by the use of physical force on another person or property. The purpose of the abuse is to control and or exploit through neglect, intimidation, inducement of fear or by inflicting pain. Abusive behaviour can take many forms including: verbal, physical, sexual, psychological, emotional, spiritual, and economic and the violation of rights. All forms of abusive behaviour are ways in which one human being is trying to have control and/or exploit or have power over another.”

Domestic violence can affect anyone. It does not discriminate by age, gender, socio-economic status, ethnicity, or ability. Anyone can be a perpetrator of domestic violence, and anyone can be a victim.
