Sylvia-s-Place--Home

"Our mission is to create and sustain a safe environment that empowers women and children through preventative education and advocacy which promotes stronger individuals, families, and communities."

We provide a warm and safe place for those fleeing domestic violence. We also provide case management, emergency clothing and supplies, personal hygiene products, food and laundry facilities as needed.

Advocacy services are available to help victims access resources and act as a liaison with law enforcement and the court system. Upon arrival at our safe house, an assessment of mental, physical and financial needs is conducted. An individualized action plan is developed based on the client's personal needs. Non-resident referrals and services are also available. All services are provided free of charge to victims of domestic violence.

Sylvia's Place does not discriminate on race, religion, sex, origin, age, or limited English. Sylvia's Place can also service the Spanish speaking population.
