The domestic violence shelters located on O`ahu and Hawai`i Island offer survivors up to 120 days in a safe haven when fleeing from an abusive situation. During this stay, survivors are welcomed with open arms and provided with support. Staff walk alongside them on the path towards healing and independence. The shelters offer counseling support and services for adults and children. Staff help in developing a safety plan, assistance in finding safe, permanent housing, and temporary basic needs such as food and clothing.
All services are free for survivors.
