Purpose

 

Taking Care of Our Sisters Shelter is committed to assisting in a healthy recovery process for all survivors of Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault. We assist survivors by providing support and advocacy in hard or trying times. Taking Care of Our Sisters also provides outreach to the community by bringing awareness to help prevent Domestic Violence. We are a 24-hour confidential shelter facility and provide a safe environment for survivors to recover from the traumatic experiences they have gone through.
