A Safe Place would like to thank the readers of the Lake County News-Sun for their generous support of the Help Them to Hope Campaign. Your investment supports the lifesaving work of A Safe Place. A Safe Place is the sole provider of services in Lake County, exclusively focusing on domestic violence and human trafficking victims.
Through comprehensive programs, A Safe Place assists victims and their children in transforming their lives after domestic violence and human trafficking, prevents future abuse by addressing its root cause through abuser intervention programs, and educates the community about domestic violence and how we can all be involved in its end.
Last year, A Safe Place served over 32,000 community members. Thanks to your support, throughout the pandemic our services never stopped and our doors never closed. We continued and will continue providing services to individuals in need. Programs and services include emergency shelter, permanent housing, scattered homes, a 24-hour crisis line (800-600-SAFE), crisis response services, court and nonlegal advocacy, individual and children’s therapy, support groups, art therapy, family visitation services, monitored custody exchanges, batterer intervention services, prevention education in the middle and high schools, and professional and community training.
