Stalking behaviors

Child abuse

Domestic Violence Victim Services

  • Counseling for Survivors, Families and Friends: Domestic Violence Advocates will listen and explore options with victims/survivors of past and present domestic violence. We can also provide assistance and support in navigating systems related to violence.

  • Youth Services: We provide counseling and advocacy for youth ages 5-17 who have witnessed or experienced domestic violence.

  • Legal advocacy: Advocates cannot provide legal advice. However, Advocates can provide legal assistance with Judicare applications, restraining orders, divorce paperwork and support during hearings.

  • Safety planning: We can work with you to create a personalized safety plan whether you choose to remain in or leave a violent relationship.

  • Emergency shelter: We do not have a shelter on-site; however, we do partner with local domestic violence shelters as needed. We can provide you with resources for safe, short-term emergency shelter as we work with you to find more permanent housing options available.

  • Outreach and awareness: Presentations and public education about domestic violence are available free of charge. Please contact the Program Director at dadirector@fsccf.org if interested.

  • 24-hour crisis hotline: Call 1.800.400.7020 to speak to a trained Advocate 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

A wheel, described as "non-violence", is seperated into eight sections with the middle reading "equality". The eight sections read, negotiation and fairness, non-threatening behavior, respect, trust and support, honesty and accountability, responsible parenting, shared responsibility, and economic partnership.
