Call Directions Website

Women's Shelter Inc. provides outreach, advocacy, and housing to individuals and families impacted by domestic violence. We are always here for you.

Whether you've decided to stay or leave, we can help you discover ways to keep yourself safe. If you have questions about abuse, want to help someone you know, or are just trying to understand your relationship, we have the experience to help you. We are open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Our Mission

The mission of Women's Shelter Inc. is to assist female victims of domestic violence and their children by establishing and maintaining a facility which will provide temporary shelter to these victims. Volunteering

All of our volunteer opportunities are posted on the United Way Volunteer website. Please note that an application and interview is required prior to volunteering at the shelter. Donations
Leaving an abusive relationship is more than just emotionally difficult. Many women who use our services leave behind everything they own just to escape. Sometimes women and children come to us with just the clothes on their back. We must provide clothing, bedding, medicine, diapers, toiletries, and, of course food and shelter. However, we can only continue to provide these things through the generosity of the community with both in-kind and monetary donations. PO Box 457
