SAFE Family Justice Centers is an independent domestic violence nonprofit with Victim Advocate staff that brings together a team of both government and community-based partners under one roof to help people who have experienced abuse and violence.
Through collaboration, the centers are dedicated to providing survivor-led services. Individuals in need receive assistance to identify their options for help, reach safety, and become educated about what their next steps should be in the aftermath of experiencing violence.
A Confidential SAFE Family Justice Center Victim Advocate will meet with you to go over your needs and provide education to you about its service options, partner agency services, and victims’ rights information. Together, we will help you build a plan for the next steps in your process.
This model has proven successful across the country and has been designated as a best-practice model for domestic violence intervention and prevention by the U.S. Department of Justice and all services provided in our center are free.
