Domestic Violence & Sexual Assault Shelter
Crisis Line #: 1 (800) 382-7294
The crisis shelter was constructed in 1997 as a safe place for victims of domestic violence and sexual assualt to reside when by no fault of their own they found themselves with no safe place to reside. Without a secure place of living the ability of families to grow and succeed comes to a screeching halt.
Shelter services are provided twenty-four hours per day, every day of the year. Shelter services are accessible by individuals calling the hotline 1 (800) 382-7294, the main phone line 1 (573) 649-3731, referrals from law enforcement, other service agencies, or by coming into the office. Arrangements are then made for the individual to be transported to the shelter, or picked up at another safe location. Emergency clothing, food, and/or transportation is also provided to victims as needed.
