'Safe space' is the new kid on the block.

a place or environment in which a person or category of people can feel confident that they will not be exposed to discrimination, criticism, harassment, or any other emotional or physical harm.

For a minute I thought you meant those safe rooms some people have in their house with steel doors where they go and hide.
