  • Misión

    Sisterhood Sanctuary Domestic Violence Resource Center exists to empower survivors of domestic violence through trauma-informed support, safety resources, and pathways to long-term stability.

    Our mission is to restore dignity, strengthen families, and provide comprehensive services that help survivors rebuild their lives — physically, emotionally, spiritually, and economically.

    We are committed to:

    • Safety — creating secure, confidential environments for survivors and their children.
    • Healing — offering compassionate, trauma-informed care that honors each survivor’s journey.
    • Empowerment — equipping individuals with tools, education, and resources to regain independence.
    • Community — building strong partnerships that expand access to housing, legal advocacy, counseling, and career development.

    Sisterhood Sanctuary stands to ensure that every survivor has the opportunity to heal fully, rebuild confidently, and rise into a life of peace, purpose, and self-sufficiency.

    Acerca de

    Sisterhood Sanctuary Domestic Violence Resource Center was born from lived experience, deep compassion, and a commitment to fill the gaps survivors often face when seeking safety and stability.

    We are a trauma-informed, survivor-led organization serving the Southland and surrounding communities with a mission to provide holistic, culturally responsive, and empowerment-based support to individuals and families impacted by domestic violence.

    Our vision is to create a community where every survivor has access to:

    • Safe shelter and transitional stability
    • Legal and advocacy support
    • Mental health and emotional wellness resources
    • Children’s trauma-informed programming
    • Workforce development and job placement
    • Education, empowerment, and financial readiness
    • Food security and essential needs
    • Long-term healing and self-sufficiency

    We believe survivors deserve more than short-term crisis response — they deserve a foundation strong enough to rebuild their entire lives.

    Through collaborative partnerships, community engagement, professional training, and a network of qualified advocates, Sisterhood Sanctuary creates pathways to:

    • Safety
    • Housing stability
    • Career development
    • Emotional healing
    • Financial empowerment
    • Community connection
    • Personal transformation

    Our organization is rooted in the values of compassion, dignity, accountability, and purpose.

    We walk with survivors through every stage of their healing journey — from crisis to restoration to renewed independence.

    At Sisterhood Sanctuary, we don’t just support survivors — we stand with them as they rise.
