I will be forever grateful to A Safe Place for the counseling, therapy, and guidance provided to me and my children after being a victim of domestic violence.

Did not have a good experience. I reached out at the lowest point of my life trying to get away from an abusive partner with two young children. I was in communication with Javier which was done in a timely manner. My problem is the realtor company that they refer to you. I had to do an interview with Heather from Safe place for the housing. After I got approved, my information got sent to the realtor company where I paid the application fee and gave all personal information regarding myself and children. I did all this waiting around and reaching out for NOTHING! Wasted my time and money I do not have just to be lead on. I recently sent out an email requesting to talk to Safe Place manager or supervisor because this is not right. And when I sent Javier and Jake (the realtor) emails back to back requesting follow ups regarding my application, Jake NEVER responded or got back to me. Only time he responded back to my email was when I sent one 3 months later (recently) to withdraw my application. That’s when Jake was quick to respond to THAT email. I am upset because I have put my trust in A Safe Place at the most vulnerable and life threatening situation and they completely ignored my safety and needs. It would of been nice to get one email or phone call informing me that I need to look somewhere else because 3 months have passed and I am stuck in the same place I was with nothing different. -Natasha M

If YOU truly need help getting away from your abuser this place help YOU do that. If YOU need counseling, this place will direct YOU as to how to get it. If YOU need housing they also get you in touch with help so that YOU can. Here's the KEY... they are there for us. They guide or direct us but WE have to do the footwork. When you utilize their direction you will succeed. I thank them for helping me get away from my abuser. They saved my life! I got a job, an apartment and a few months later I got a car. I'm now independent and feel free. I took every bit of their advice, guidance and am so grateful. You can do it to. But you can't sit their and expect things to fall on your lap. You've got to do the footwork. If someone steals your food in there, maybe they were hungry. Pray for them and keep it movin. Remember your beautiful and wonderfully made. And you don't need someone abusing you. You can do it. I'm sure of it.

I went here with my 2 boys years ago and if I hadn't I might not be alive today. Thank you for the safe place to stay while I figure it out. The only thing I didn't like or understand is why there was a limit I could stay. I was so scared but women talking during sessions in the family room downstairs woke me up. One lady was saying if I left one time and went back there was a high chance I would always go back. .I couldn't live if I didn't make changes. My children are now 14 and 13 my boys. .. . .thank you for reaching my teenager mind. I am greatly appreciative for the opportunity to be helped by my community of women 🙏 🙌 ❤

There are not enough words in the English language for me to adequately describe how amazing this organization is. I served on their Board of Directors for two years, have been a loyal volunteer and donor for many years, and have referred people in crisis to A Safe Place. Online reviews for places like restaurants and retail outlets tend to talk about nice-to-have amenities and customer service. But what you need to know about A Safe Place is that they SAVE LIVES. They get domestic violence victims and their children to safety against all odds. They use the legal system and their own emergency shelter and apartment buildings to keep survivors safe over time. They transform lives through counseling and career and life skills programs. I have seen this work first hand, and it brings me to tears imagining what the community would do without an organization like A Safe Place. The people who work the crisis line, staff the shelter, counsel the survivors, oversee the Family Visitation Center are all heart. They go above and beyond to provide everything they can for people in need. They even work with abusers to help stop the cycle of violence to prevent future victims and to keep the community safe. If you or someone you know is being abused, intimidated, demeaned or controlled by an intimate partner, please reach out to A Safe Place for help; you are not alone. My hat's off to ASP's director and her incredible, overworked staff for all they do to help tens of thousands of local women, men and children.
