Men, women, and their children experiencing a crisis as a result of domestic violence or sexual assault can seek services by visiting our Community Center. We provide individualized services focused on healing and empowerment.
Crisis Intervention - Individualized services and assistance to reduce stress and provide immediate, short-term support. Support services include safety planning, understanding and support, information and education.
Peer Support Groups - Survivor support groups are held twice a month and cover educational material and issues brought up by the group.
