Our mission is to provide survivor-defined, trauma-informed services which enhance safety and justice for victims of domestic violence, sexual assault, and associated trauma, while promoting peace in our community.
ARISE was founded in 1979, out of a need to support victims of domestic violence. As our community has grown we have expanded our services to include victims of sexual assault, stalking, and other trauma. Our services include legal navigation, safehouse shelter, transitional housing, financial support, survivor support groups, therapy, matched savings program, referrals to community resources, and information/education about the dynamics typically present in violent relationships.
