Womens Resource Center Domestic Abuse
Domestic abuse is an intentional act used to gain power and control over another person. Abusive or controlling acts may include emotional and verbal abuse, threats, isolation, intimidation, sexual abuse, economic control and physical abuse.

The Domestic Abuse Program provides services for survivors experiencing domestic abuse in their lives.

  • Program offers temporary shelter, support, advocacy, counseling and immediate help.
  • Counseling and support are also provided for victims who choose not to stay in the shelter.
  • Ongoing support groups are provided; call (231) 347-1572 or the WRC office in your community to determine the time and location.

Our 24-hour crisis line is (231) 347-0082. We also offer a toll free number for long distance crisis callers only, which is (800) 275-1995.
