About Safeline, Inc.
Safeline is a 501(c)(3) non-profit that strives to end physical, emotional and sexual violence against women and girls through direct service, education, advocacy and social change. While services are available to all victims and survivors in Orange County and northern Windsor County, Vermont, Safeline’s mission statement reflects the important fact that the overwhelming majority of domestic and sexual violence is perpetuated against women and girls.
Last year, Safeline staff and volunteers fielded over 1,000 hotline calls and worked with 430 different victims/survivors.
Safeline offers a wide array of services including: a 24-hour hotline, crisis support, safety planning, medical advocacy, economic advocacy, mentoring, support groups, financial literacy courses, day shelter services, information and referral and prevention education. Safeline also has a full Legal Services Department and a Transitional Housing program. Well-trained advocates, volunteers and Safeline’s attorney, bring to their work a deep understanding of the dynamics of abuse, as well as knowledge of national best practices. Services are confidential and victim-centered, based on the concept that service users are experts of their situations and should take the lead in figuring out the best ways to achieve their goals and stay safe.
Although Safeline has become fiscally secure in recent years, the worsening economy has affected us in many ways. In this time of budget cuts and belt tightening, we are serving more victims and survivors with greater needs and fewer resources. Now more than ever, we need your financial support to sustain all of the services that we provide to victims and survivors, and to the greater community.
