Domestic Violence Services

Our shelter provides individuals and families with a safe, supportive, home-like environment when they need to leave an unsafe situation.

The shelter is designed to feel like home, with shared living spaces, laundry facilities, a full kitchen, and areas for children and families to spend time together.

While staying at the shelter, clients receive individualized advocacy, safety planning, access to basic needs, referrals, and support as they work toward greater stability and independence.

Not everyone we serve needs shelter. Through our Outreach and Legal programs, clients can receive advocacy and support while remaining in the community.

Our advocates help clients understand their options, develop safety plans, connect with community resources, apply for Victim’s Compensation, and navigate the court system when legal assistance is needed. Legal Advocates can also assist with Temporary Protective Orders and Stalking Orders and provide support during court proceedings.

Our housing programs help individuals and families move toward safe, stable, permanent housing. Services may include housing searches, landlord coordination, application assistance, and eligible financial assistance.

Housing services are not limited to domestic violence survivors. Depending on program eligibility and available funding, we may also assist survivors of child abuse, sexual assault, and human trafficking.

This approach allows us to continue supporting clients beyond the immediate crisis and help them move toward long-term stability and whole healing.

At F.A.I.T.H., Inc., we understand that pets are more than just animals—they are beloved members of the family. For survivors of domestic violence, the thought of leaving a cherished pet behind can be heartbreaking and may even become a barrier to seeking safety.

Ken’s Kennels was created to ensure that survivors do not have to choose between their own safety and the well-being of their pets. Located at our emergency shelter, this special space allows survivors fleeing domestic violence to bring their beloved pets with them as they begin their journey toward safety and healing.

Ken’s Kennels features two dog runs and a dedicated cat room, providing a safe and welcoming environment for pets while their owners receive the shelter, support, and resources they need.

This meaningful addition to our shelter was made possible through the incredible generosity of our community, including contributions from our Fund-A-Need fundraising initiative, a generous individual donor, and a grant from RedRover.
Thanks to this compassionate support, we are able to remove one more barrier for survivors seeking safety. Ken’s Kennels represents more than a place for animals—it provides comfort, peace of mind, and the reassurance that families can begin a new chapter together, without leaving a beloved companion behind.

Because no one should have to choose between safety and family, including their four-legged family members.
