Family violence is occurring at an increasingly rate in our communities. The Adams Wells Crisis Center was established in 1997 to provide comprehensive residential services including: temporary shelter and meals, 24 hour crisis intervention, case management services, and emergency essential transportation for victims of family violence (women, age 18 and over) and their minor children (under age 18). It is our goal to create hope in the hearts of victims of domestic violence and to provide the tools they need to secure their independence. Domestic violence and abuse does not discriminate. It occurs within all age ranges, ethnic backgrounds, and economic levels. And while women are more commonly victimized, men are also abused-especially verbally and emotionally. The bottom line is that abusive behavior is never acceptable, whether it’s coming from a man, a woman, a teen-ager, or an older adult. We all deserve to feel valued, respected and safe. AWWC is a safe place where women and children can begin again.
Broken Hearts….Broken Homes
The purple ribbon has become a symbol of peace, support for those who have survived the violence, commemoration of those who have not been so fortunate, and hope that together, we can work to end this violence which claims thousands of lives each year.
