October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month đź’ś
Did you know that 1 in 4 women in the United States have experienced severe physical violence at the hands of an intimate partner? Behind that statistic are real women — mothers, daughters, sisters, and friends — living in fear, often unsure where to turn for safety.
At the Shreveport-Bossier Rescue Mission, we meet victims of domestic violence in their darkest hour. We believe no one should have to choose between living in danger and having nowhere to go. That's why our doors are open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, providing immediate safety, shelter, and hope to those escaping dangerous situations.
Because everyone deserves to be safe. And everyone deserves hope.
Here, survivors find:
▪️ Immediate access to safety and shelter — we take no government funding so that means no waitlists, no red tape.
▪️ A caring community that listens, prays, and walks with them through healing.
▪️ Christ-centered recovery programs that restore identity, faith, and purpose.
▪️ Practical help like meals, clothing, counseling, and job readiness support — tools to rebuild a new life.
💜 If you or someone you know is trapped in an abusive situation, you don’t have to face it alone. Hope, help, and healing are waiting at the Mission.
