Thrift Shop
Located at 700 E. Cherokee, The Crisis Center Thrift Shop is
both a critical resource for our clients and a fundraiser for
the agency. Often clients have left everything behind to flee
for safety. At the Thrift Shop, they receive the household items
they need. Volunteers and staff receive, sort and display donations,
and assist clients and customers with selections. The public
is encouraged to patronize our Thrift Shop to help generate revenue
which directly funds the Crisis Center's programs.
Legal Advocacy
We help guide our clients through the legal process through education
and personal advocacy. Learn more about our legal
advocacy programs.
