Hands of Hope exists to educate about and prevent domestic and sexual violence. Domestic and sexual violence are issues that not only affect men and women, but their families and our community. We serve and strive to improve the well-being of all who seek our services. These services include advocacy for victims of domestic and sexual violence in our office, referrals to our safe shelter, weekly support groups for Victims of Domestic Violence and educational programs to teach students about healthy relationships. If you are interested in having us speak at your school, church, or organization, please contact us via e-mail or phone. Any questions or comments can be posted on our wall and we will do our best to reply to your inquiries. Please note, our page is not monitored 24 hours a day.

Men have feelings. Men experience trauma. Men need support, too.

This November, we’re shining a light on men’s mental health and an important conversation that often goes unspoken: Men can be victims of domestic violence, too.

Too often, men are taught to be strong, hide their emotions, and handle their struggles alone. But strength isn’t about suffering in silence. Sometimes, the strongest thing a person can do is admit they’re struggling and reach out for help.

At Hands of Hope, we want every man to know that his feelings are valid, his experiences matter, and he deserves to feel safe, respected, and supported.

Domestic violence does not discriminate, and neither does our compassion. 💜

To the men reading this: You don’t have to have it all together. You don’t have to pretend everything is okay. And you certainly don’t have to face abuse or difficult emotions alone.

Our confidential advocates are here to listen without judgment and help you explore your options.

You took your chances & let Those Things You Wanted wait until half-price day. Guess what? Half-price day comes today! Hurry to the library before your items get snapped up. Oh yeah, and at these prices, it's the perfect time to pick up items for white elephant exchanges during Christmas season or for a book-a-day Advent calendar.

Friendly Reminder: It’s Time to FALL BACK!

Don’t forget! Daylight Saving Time ends this Sunday, November 1st, at 2:00 AM. That means it’s time to turn your clocks BACK one hour before heading to bed Saturday night!

While you’re enjoying that extra hour of sleep, it’s also a great time to check your smoke detectors and replace batteries if needed. 🏡

From all of us at Hands of Hope, we hope you enjoy a little extra rest and a wonderful start to November! 💜

An extra hour of sleep? Yes, please! 😴

💜 EVERY 1 KNOWS SOME 1. 💜

Domestic violence affects more people than we may realize. It could be a friend, family member, coworker, neighbor, or someone you see every day.

This Domestic Violence Awareness Month, let's stand together, raise awareness, support survivors, and remind those experiencing abuse that they are not alone.

Sometimes, simply being there for someone can make all the difference.

At Hands of Hope, we're here to listen, support, and provide confidential resources when they're needed most.

Children may not be the direct target of domestic violence, but witnessing it can still have a lasting impact.

In the final reel of our Domestic Violence Awareness Month series, we're discussing how exposure to violence in the home can affect a child's emotional well-being, behavior, relationships, and sense of safety.

Creating safe, healthy environments for children matters. Take a moment to listen, learn, and help us continue raising awareness for families in our community.
Every child deserves to grow up feeling safe, supported, and loved.

ABUSE CAN GO BEYOND THE PHYSICAL❗️❕

Financial and religious abuse are often overlooked forms of domestic violence, but both can be used to gain power and control over another person.

From withholding money and limiting financial independence to using someone's faith or religious beliefs to manipulate, shame, or isolate them, these behaviors can have serious and lasting effects.

This Domestic Violence Awareness Month, we're encouraging our community to recognize the different forms of abuse and understand that everyone deserves independence, respect, and the freedom to make their own choices.

If you or someone you know is experiencing abuse, Hands of Hope is here to provide confidential support and resources.
