Community programs

The work that keeps the lights on.

Our survivor programs are free because of a community that shows up — through what they donate, what they buy, and the time they give.

Our largest funding engine

Sister's Closet Thrift Store

Every dress, dish, and dining set sold goes directly into shelter, counseling, and legal services. It's where the community shops, donates, volunteers, and shows up — together.
