DIRECT SURVIVOR SERVICES
Expanding Resources, Growing Community Action..
How we differ from other local anti-violence services:
+ non-judgmental support
+ no statute of limitations or crime reporting will limit you to our services
+ no ‘proof of harm’ required for folks to receive services
+ unrestricted financial support programs
+ no information will ever be shared with police or legal systems
Current Offerings:
1. Child Care Network
2. Community Transportation Network
3. Lending Circle
A hyper-local, community funds pool for survivors who need small, one-time, no proof required, cash grants.
4. Savings Matching Program
(Approved by Shirley Human, implemented and operated by FreeFrom.org.)
A program that supports survivors in building emergency savings by matching their monthly savings up to $55/month. No proof of accounts or savings deposits needed.
5. Individual Safety Planning Consultations for Survivors
(Certification Approved BY : The SAFE & TOGETHER INSTITUTE , Piloted by ST&I Certificate Holder, Hanna Davison, Learn More about this certification).
These are free, personal consultations for folks to intersect with our coalition of fellow survivors to brainstorm and propose an individualized path to long term safety. No proof of violence is required to receive this service. It is for those that desire peer support and feedback-specific to local limitations and assets—in an informal, confidential setting.
