We envision a future where violence and abuse are not tolerated in the communities we serve.
We provide education, violence prevention services and crisis intervention to victims of family violence, dating violence, sexual assault and child abuse.

Give the Gift of Hope this Season
As we near the end of this year and begin to look forward to 2023, it is hard to do so without a bit of hope. This season, you can give that hope to the people we seek to empower. With your support, HCWC staff and volunteers are available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year to listen, believe, and support survivors in our community.
We’re Hiring!
We are currently looking for a Counselor and a Substitute Shelter Advocate to join our passionate and dedicated team of staff working to create a community where violence and abuse are not tolerated!
Purse Bingo was a Huge Success!
A special thank you to our 4th Annual Purse Bingo sponsors, supporters, and volunteers! We had such a wonderful time with everyone in attendance. Congratulations to all the purse winners and to those who won silent auction items!
Because of your generous support, we were able to raise over $53,000 to support local victims of abuse!
We Must be Anti-Racist
HCWC stands in solidarity with people of color to hold accountable systems and individuals who continue to use violence and abuse to value some lives over others. We have long recognized that domestic violence, sexual assault, child abuse, and racism are intricately linked.
Speak Your Truth. Break the Silence.
We are offering a place for the community to anonymously submit their works for us to share with our supporters. Your story, poetry, art, or advice to your younger self could make a huge difference in the life of someone experiencing abuse, and could even be the motivation they need to reach out for help or to process the emotions they feel from the abuse.
Stop the Hurt
A project of HCWC, Stop the Hurt is our educational website dedicated to giving resources to parents and teens on helping victims of dating violence. We created it with the intent of being an online advocate for those who want to help the ones they love and don’t know where to start. Visit the Site!
Community Education
HCWC offers community education and informational presentations on issues related to sexual abuse, child abuse, family violence, HCWC services, ways to get involved and more.
