Support and Advocacy for Survivors

Advocacy means working in partnership with survivors, focused on safety and support, to help rebuild connections, agency, and control of their lives. We help your voice be heard, empowering your next steps in your healing journey. 

All comprehensive services are free, available to all survivors, and are survivor-driven and trauma-informed. Trained advocates are available for both residential (in-shelter) and non-residential survivors. 

To make an appointment for non-residential services, contact the Outreach Advocate at 906-524-7079.
