The Women's Center provides free and confidential 24-hour easily accessible services to those in need. We provide counseling, education, outreach, referrals and resources. We may be called the Women's center, but we serve men and children as well.

With over 30 years of experience, The Women's Center is the preeminent organization in the region offering comprehensive FREE and confidential services to ALL survivors and victims of domestic violence, sexual assault, and child trauma.

A strategic merger on July 1, 2009, with Residential Care Consortium in Fall River brought two new programs under the umbrella of The Women's Center: Our Sisters Place, a secure domestic violence shelter and the L.O.F.T. Transitional Housing Program. Please visit our NEWS page for more information.

You can help to provide these services and education to your community with your donation to the Women's Center.
