Many visitors who come to Villa Vrede are also supported by other organizations. We work closely with these organizations. If people are looking for a place to sleep, we refer you to the registration desk, if people need medical help to STIL and if there are problems with an individual, we will link this back to the contact person of his/her shelter.
