Project presentation
In rural areas, women survivors of domestic violence face a double form of isolation: distance from support services and persistent taboos surrounding violence. To provide a safe space for recovery and rebuilding, the Moulin de Pont-Rû association, based in the heart of the Vexin region, has been supporting vulnerable women since 2018 through immersive stays designed to foster resilience and autonomy.
In 2025, MDPR aims to further develop its day-care services, offering psychological, social, and legal support, and to roll out a training program for rural actors seeking to create similar immersive support initiatives. The project responds to an urgent need for tailored support in rural territories while disseminating a proven, human-centered methodology.
