Our Impact
Our Mission: To END Family Violence
At the Peace at Home Family Shelter, we are committed to ending family violence in Northwest Arkansas.
In the year 2010:
- We assisted 680 brave women and children escaping the family violence in their lives.
- We provided survivors 6,500 safe nights of emergency shelter.
- We answered 700 crisis calls to individuals in need.
- We provided 7,000 hours of individual advocacy helping survivors find meaningful employment, affordable housing, and emotional support.
Our work is making a difference in the lives of Northwest Arkansas every day. 75% of the women who stayed in Shelter with us last year chose NOT to return to their abuser. They are instead choosing to change their lives and their children’s lives for good.
