Thank you for your support!

Having access to a cell phone is important for our clients’ safety, so we collect used ones to give to those clients in the event they need to call 911.

Any phone you donate will be wiped clean and given to clients who need them. If you can help, phones and chargers can be dropped off at our center at 1418 E Pythian, Monday-Friday, 8:30a-4:00p

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, approximately 1 in 12 high school students experience physical or sexual dating violence each year. This issue transcends gender, ethnicity, and socioeconomic status, impacting these young lives in profound and lasting ways. Understanding the prevalence, identifying harmful behaviors, and promoting healthy relationship dynamics are key to addressing teen dating violence.

Meet the VOICES Survivor Advocacy Committee!

VOICES is a survivor-led committee dedicated to centering the lived experiences, insight, and leadership of those impacted by domestic violence. VOICES works to advocate for change, shape programs and policies, and ensure that support systems truly reflect the needs of the people they serve.

Elevating survivor voices isn’t just important, it’s essential. When survivors lead, organizations become more informed, more compassionate, and more effective in creating safety, healing, and long‑term change.

The VOICES Survivor Advocacy Committee in Greene County is proud to host the upcoming screening of “It Ends With Us” to bring awareness to the dynamics of domestic violence, how it is portrayed in the media, and how lived experiences often differ from what we learn through popular culture.

Join us at Alamo Drafthouse on Sunday, June 7th at 2:30pm for this important event!
