My Sister’s Place Family Care Facility

Washington, DC

​

My Sister’s Place (MSP) provides confidential shelter along with programs of education and advocacy for battered women and their children. In collaboration with MSP, RMc enlarged the existing shelter and traditional housing using the existing space along with the adjacent property. The new design adds a library, children’s playroom, commercial kitchen, and an enclosed playground and provides significantly greater security for the women and children.
