Emergency Shelter and Transitional Housing
Our emergency shelter and transitional housing programs provide a safe, supportive environment for survivors to rebuild their lives. Along with temporary shelter, we offer counseling, case management, and life skills training to help you regain your independence.
Financial Literacy
Financial independence is key to regaining control over your life. We provide resources and programs to help you understand budgeting, financial planning, debt management, and how to access financial assistance programs.
Support Groups
Our support groups offer a nurturing space for survivors to connect with others who have experienced similar trauma. Here, you can share your experiences, learn coping strategies, and find a sense of community and resilience.
Trauma and Self-Care Resources
We offer a range of trauma-informed care and self-care resources to help you cope with the emotional and psychological impact of violence. These include individual counseling, group therapy, mindfulness practices, yoga, art therapy, and other holistic approaches to healing.
Legal Advocacy and Assistance
Our legal advocacy services are here to help you navigate the legal system and access the resources you need. We can assist with obtaining protective orders, navigating custody and visitation issues, and providing support throughout court proceedings.
Community Outreach and Education
We’re committed to raising awareness about domestic and sexual violence, challenging societal attitudes, and promoting prevention strategies. We offer training sessions, workshops, and educational materials to help our community recognize signs of abuse, respond effectively, and support survivors.
