Counseling
Our counseling program offers trauma-informed therapy specific to domestic violence and sexual assault survivors, in both individual and group settings. Counseling services are free and completely confidential and those who participate in these services often say we “get it” — meaning we understand the needs of survivors. Our counselors are compassionate and supportive in helping clients heal and reclaim their lives. To be referred to our counseling services, please call our Helpline.

Youth Violence Prevention
Our Prevention Specialist brings Violence Prevention curriculum into all of the Deschutes County High School health classes each year. The curriculum focuses on teaching affirmative consent, roots of oppression, intimate partner violence (IPV), domestic violence (DV), teen dating violence, sexual assault (SA), bystander intervention, and healthy relationships. The ultimate goal is to affect social norms for this next generation of leaders who can truly make life without violence a reality.
