The program serves women who have experienced domestic violence and are trying to establish a life separate from their abuser, while remaining in the community.

The program also works with women living with their abuser to make choices to increase their safety, and the safety of their children.

Our Guiding Principles:

• First consideration will be for the safety and well-being of the woman and her children.
• Program will assist women in identifying the choices and resources available to them and their children.
• Program will respect a woman’s right to make her own choices.

You are not alone and you are not to blame!
