''I was 15 when I was brought into My Friend's House by police officers from the hospital. They let me speak with them when I was ready and said this is the space you can use and that you can reside in. They make you feel accepted and they don't judge. At My Friend's House its really a friendly house. My Friend's House makes you feel calm. They let you do what you need to do to get through your situation, but there is always someone there for you.''
''I didn't know what I was living through till my friend told me how my relationship wasn't normal. It was her that called My Friend's House and had one of the counsellors go to her house to meet with me. The staff at the shelter provided me with support 24 hours a day, if I was having a rough night like at 3am I could go sit and talk with someone. I always had the support and guidance. I don't know what would have happened if it weren't for My Friend's House.''
''A friend of mine mentioned to me about My Friend's House, so I took it upon myself to go through the doors myself and instantly I felt safe and secure. My life without My Friend's House, probably wouldn't have turned out the same. I don't know where I would have ended up without them."
