Certainly. A victim of domestic violence who is afraid to be in her own home will, on an emergency basis, need to seek out for herself, and oftentimes her children, a safe place to go, a safe house, which would be a domestic violence shelter.
The difficulty, of course, of not having one in a community, particularly in a remote community is, how do the woman and children make their way to another centre? I would have to say, having been responsible, that there aren't likely enough shelters in Manitoba generally anywhere, not just in first nations communities.
