Family Violence Protection Services (FVPS) provides comprehensive mental health counseling and psycho-educational services to children at the Battered Women and Children’s Shelter (BWCS), Haven for Hope, and FVPS’s Non-Residential Services location.
The Principle Goals of Counseling Include:
Helping children understand that domestic violence is not their fault, educating children on the cycle of violence and helping them to develop alternative, non-violent behaviors, fostering healthy life skills, communication skills, relationship skills, and boundaries, and strengthening children’s resiliency and protective factors.
Mission
Our mission is to provide the tools to mend their bodies and restore their dignity, their hope, and possibilities to attain self-sufficiency without abuse. That mission includes reaching out to all sectors in our community, to share our knowledge and experience, so we may enlist them in doing their share to address the intolerable increasing incidence of domestic violence.
