The program provides a safe haven for victims of domestic violence and their children and offers shelter, basic necessities, food, clothing, support groups, case management and referrals for housing, childcare, mental/medical healthcare, transportation and job opportunities. Often the first link to safety, the crisis line provides safety planning, information, and support to callers in immediate danger, and to those with questions about people who may be battered. Additionally, the crisis line offers referrals to community resources available throughout the state of Georgia. During FY 2021, PADV housed 246 adults and children. We fielded 12,707 calls on the crisis line.
