Domestic
violence is not just physical abuse. Verbal and emotional
abuse in an intimate relationship almost always exists
in physically abusive relationships, and often occurs
months and even years before a violent event. If you feel
you are in an abusive relationship or know someone who
is, Mountain Resource Center is here to help.
If
you are in immediate danger, please call 911

In
collaboration with the Family
Tree/Women in Crisis program, Mountain Resource Center
provides critical services for mountain area survivors
of domestic violence. Survivors receive assistance through
individual and group support, safety and awareness education,
referrals to safe shelters, legal services, and medical
providers. Program staff educates
health care professionals and community groups to increase
awareness about the insidious harm domestic violence does
to individuals, children, families, and the community.
Community service linkages enhance the access of survivors
and their families to health, mental health, and advocacy
services. |
