Services

SAVE provides a safety net of services. We are far more than simply a "domestic violence shelter."  SAVE’s continuum of free services aid a very diverse clientele in the San Francisco Bay Area and beyond.

Our services are offered under the belief that everyone deserves to live in a violence-free home and be an equal partner in a safe relationship.  While working with clients, our philosophy is to empower the individual to become safe from abuse.  She/he must make her/his own choice about the relationship, the future, and safety precautions.  By offering education, encouragement, and guidance, SAVE’s clients gain hope for a new beginning – a life free of fear and free of abuse.

SAVE will assist any victim of domestic violence regardless of age, gender, sexual orientation, disability, ethnicity, language spoken, or geographic location. 

Prevention Services – These services encompass our outreach and education programs to the community and schools.

Intervention Services – From the moment of crisis to resolution, SAVE offers a number of services to meet the victim’s immediate and short-term needs.

Support Services – Recovering from the effects of domestic abuse is an ongoing and often long-term process.  SAVE’s support services are available to assist the victim in this process.
