About
The shelter services program provides safe temporary emergency shelter in a secured 33-bed facility for men, women and children victimized by domestic violence. Additionally, the program provides emotional support, counseling, education, information, resources and referrals to assist adult clients in developing safety plans and setting goals within a trauma informed shelter environment. Weekly support groups, individual advocacy and family meetings are available to residents at the shelter. The 24- hour, 7-day a week crisis/information line offers crisis intervention, information and referral assistance. Over 11,300 calls were received during the fiscal year ending March 31, 2020. During the same period 12 men, 179 women, 1 nonbinary person and 99 children received services at the emergency shelter. A total of 9,439 nights of shelter was provided. The shelter services program combines the family program and emergency housing into one. The costs of the two prior programs referenced in the previous sentence are now reflected in shelter services.
