Sacred Shawl Shelter

Sacred Shawl Shelter Sacred Shawl Shelter has been open for over 6 years now. We also believe it is necessary to raise community awareness on violence against women and the effects.

We are an organization that offers emergency shelter and advocacy for domestic and sexual violence on the Pine Ridge Reservation of South Dakota. The Sacred Shawl Shelter, a non-profit organization for the sole purpose of protection of women and children from domestic and sexual violence. The Shelter recognizes that violence against women is not a random state but is, in fact, a system of behavior

s and tactics used to maintain power and control over women, whether that is an individuals or a group. The Shelter believes violence against Indigenous or Lakota women is not traditional to our culture and lifeways teachings. We are committed to develop and maintaining a shelter, for safety and advocacy for individuals victimized by violence. We recognize the need to develop an effective response to systems in our community such as health, criminal justice, and other institutions that minimize violence against women.
