Information for Survivors

You Are Not Alone. Help Is Available.

If you are experiencing domestic violence or human trafficking, S.A.F.E. Place is here to help. Whether you need immediate safety, emotional support, legal advocacy, housing assistance, or simply someone to listen, our compassionate team is ready to support you every step of the way.

All S.A.F.E. Place services are free, confidential, and survivor-led. We believe every survivor deserves to be treated with dignity, respect, and compassion while making their own choices about what comes next.

How We Can Help

No matter where you are in your journey, our services are designed to help you find safety, healing, and hope.

24-Hour Crisis Support

Our trained advocates are available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year to provide crisis intervention, safety planning, information, referrals, and emotional support. If you are in immediate danger or need assistance, help is only a phone call away.

Emergency Shelter

S.A.F.E. Place operates a 60-bed emergency shelter for survivors of domestic violence and human trafficking. Shelter residents receive a safe place to stay, basic necessities, advocacy services, and support in planning for the future.

Survivor Advocacy

Our advocates work alongside survivors to identify goals, explore options, connect with community resources, and navigate challenges related to housing, employment, healthcare, transportation, finances, and more.

Counseling & Support

Healing looks different for everyone. S.A.F.E. Place offers counseling and supportive services for adults, children, and families impacted by violence and exploitation. Our trauma-informed approach helps survivors process their experiences and build pathways toward healing.

Legal Advocacy

Navigating the legal system can feel overwhelming. Our legal advocates can provide information and support related to Personal Protection Orders (PPOs), court accompaniment, and other legal concerns connected to abuse and exploitation.

Your Safety Comes First

Every survivor's situation is unique. You do not have to leave an abusive relationship to receive support, and you do not need to stay in our shelter to access our services. Whether you're seeking information, exploring safety strategies, exploring your options, or ready to take the next step, we are here to support your decisions without judgment.
