One setback can derail the progress a Crisis Center client has made on their path to safety, healing and greater well-being. Unexpected car repairs lead to not being able to get to work; which leads to a lack of income and inability to pay rent or purchase food; which leads to concerns around maintaining safe and stable housing.

That is why, in 2019, the Crisis Center established our Immediate Client Need Fund to provide direct financial assistance to clients experiencing unexpected, emergency needs for things like rental assistance, car repairs, new tires, medication, child care and court fees.

Since 2019, we have provided assistance to 41 clients at an average of $680. In our follow up with clients, approximately 90% reported that they have stable housing and reported that their income stable and adequate enough to pay their monthly bills.

We want to grow this fund so that we can support an average of 50 clients annually with unexpected and immediate needs as they arise. Our goal for Domestic Violence Awareness Month is to raise $10,000 to be able to provide assistance to approximately 15 additional families in need - families who may not otherwise receive support.

On behalf of those we serve, we are grateful for your generosity and dedication to our mission.
