COVID-19 Information

Like many other essential services, STAND! has never stopped serving survivors, their children, and our community during the COVID-19 pandemic. Our 24/7 Crisis & Support Line (888-215-5555) and Emergency Shelter have continued uninterrupted, welcoming those at highest risk for DV or homicide. Our children’s therapy program, transitional housing, groups, and supportive services to adult survivors remain readily available via video or phone appointment. However, if it is not safe for you to access services from your home, please note the following changes about in-person services at STAND!

Through presentations and trainings with community groups, corporations, local businesses, government agencies, and individuals, STAND! educates our community about the causes, effects, and signs of domestic violence and child abuse.
