Short-Term Housing

Gateway battered women's shelter residential program provides confidential emergency housing to women and their children who are victims of domestic violence.

Gateway Shelters

Gateway operates two emergency shelter facilities. The short-term facility in Aurora has 24 beds; our other (long-term) facility in southern Arapahoe county has a 14-bed capacity.

Residents at the short-term shelter are asked to commit to a minimum stay of three days and can stay up to a maximum of thirty days.  Each woman arriving at the shelter will  have an intake and orientation sessions.  Each woman is assigned a primary caseworker who meets with her on an ongoing basis throughout her stay, and assists her with goal setting, safety planning, advocacy, resource development and offers much needed emotional support.
