Children, Too! Print E-mail

Serving children and parents who are victims of domestic violence and sexual assault with support, resources, education, referrals, and advocacy.

  

Our Mission

Children are profoundly affected by witnessing family violence. It is our mission to focus on each child’s emotional, physical, and educational needs through groups, assessments, parent education and support. It is our goal to connect families into services within the community for continued support and education in their new violence - free lives.

 

Services we Provide

·    Child centered groups that focus on feeling identification, personal safety, character development and play.

·        Mommy and Me Class

·        Healthy Eating Class

·        Referrals for childcare, preschool, children’s therapy, recreation and social services.

·        Advocacy and support with community agencies and schools.

·        Information on community events and resources.

·        Parent education classes and parent support.

 

Every child that comes into our emergency shelter is treated with care and respect. Basic needs such as food, clothing, and a place to sleep are all provided. We create a place that is safe, secure and free of violence for children to begin to heal. We listen and we play. Most importantly we give children a chance to be children. We give families tools for working together and support for developing healthy relationships. We build families up and let everyone know that there is life beyond the violence of their old home.  We can help create a beginning for families.
