Our Mission
The organization is a nonprofit entity formed for the purpose of providing legal advocacy and private housing services to victims of domestic violence, particularly immigrant women whose primary language is not English. The Organization seeks to empower survivors by providing them with the tools necessary to achieve safety, stability, and independence. Immediate funding will provide the ability to hire legal advocates to support victims with knowledge of the legal system, accompanying the victim to court hearings, assistance with testifying, assistance with filing a report, and assistance with filling a personal protection order if needed. These services will be of no cost to the victim; however funds will be used to pay the advocates. Long term funding will be used to invest in a private home and transportation that can house up to 6 victims with no more than 2 victims in one room. The home will be a 3 month to 1 year rehabilitation stay that will include a safe place to sleep; individual therapy, group therapy, 3 meals a day and links to resources including: Human Services, transportation, job placement; and medical appointments. The stay will be subsidized; but not free.
