Advocates has always believed that children are the silent victims of domestic violence in their homes. For that reason, Advocates created a trauma informed comprehensive program to support children whether they are in shelter or in the community. Children have their own advocate who works with them and the family to discuss their fears and what they need to start feeling safe again. The program includes one on one counseling, if desired, two childrens groups a year, and a strong program in all Ozaukee County schools to provide information and prevention strategies to children. Advocates also works with children who have experienced sexual assault and provides all the above services to them and their family.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJan 1, 2024 – Dec 31, 2024Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$187KSexual Assault Victim Services Program
