Support Every Step of the Way

We are here to help those in our community, and we want you to know that you are never alone! When you turn to the Family Crisis Center for help, we are truly with you every step of the way. Our emergency hotline is available 24/7, so when you need immediate support, you have somewhere to turn right away. If you are a survivor of sexual or domestic violence, please call us so we can provide you with any help you may need.

Our shelter offers a safe place for you and any children to stay in a confidential location. We know the idea of starting over can be scary for some, so we offer so much more than a bed to sleep in and a secure place to stay. Our team of advocates can connect you to mental health therapy at no cost to you, connect you to counseling services, and provide clothing, financial resources, and even transportation assistance.

With a comprehensive array of services and connections, you do not have to take your next steps on your own. Let us help you or your family move forward and find out what your life can look like with an independent future.
