Sylvia’s Place is a supporting agency that believes in the inherent value of every human being. Our mission is to create and to sustain a safe environment that empowers women and children through preventative education and advocacy, which promotes stronger individuals, families, and communities.

Since our beginning in 1996, we have provided over 40,067 safe bed nights to the women and children we are honored to serve.  Our wonderful supporter’s gifts enable us to welcome all those who are fleeing domestic violence in their homes.  We also offer residential and non-residential support services to survivors who are looking for ways to change their lives.  We use contracted counseling services, victim (legal) advocacy, case management, referrals to area agencies, housing referrals, and other referrals based on individual survivor needs.

• We value the inherent equality and worth of all individuals
• We value the strength and power of individuals to make their own life choices
• We value the integrity of our organization practices
