The highest barrier to leaving an abusive situation isn't a lack of courageβ€”it’s a lack of affordable housing. πŸ πŸ’”

Walnut Avenue Advocates hear this daily. No one should have to choose between homelessness and harm.

Let's break down the financial barriers and make safety affordable for all.

If you need confidential support, resources, or someone to talk to, call our 24/7 hotline at 1.866.269.2559

Standing in solidarity with survivors and reminding our community that everyone deserves to afford to be safe.

Peace begins at home, but safety shouldn't be a luxury.

We are breaking the silence to advocate for affordable, stable housing and the support systems survivors need to rebuild their lives.

You are seen, you are supported, and you are never alone.

Rising grocery prices are putting even more pressure on domestic violence survivors and their families.

Support and help Walnut Avenue to continue to provide essential and vital food services because no one should have to decide between putting food on the table or finding safety.

Every donation helps keep our pantry stocked for those who need it most.

Local survivors and children are directly impacted by this concerning and problematic fact.

Countless survivors name this as the main reason they cannot leave unsafe homes or living situations.

Walnut Avenue and allies believe everyone in the community deserves the right to afford safety.
