The DOVES Program's mission is to provide safe, secure shelter and empowerment services for women, men and children as they begin their lives free of domestic violence. We work with each individual supporting them, encouraging their efforts as they gain independence and move from a life that is controlled by abuse and degradation to a life that is free from abuse and control. The DOVES' staff provide focused, responsive services that will empower victims within the shelter and the community. Our staff and Board of Directors work diligently toward the establishment of a society where violence is not tolerated.
