Our Mission
The mission of Suzy’s Place is to assist women who are victims of domestic violence including emotional, economic, sexual, and physical abuse. We provide emergency and transitional housing, emotional support, and a diversified continuum of services focused on safety, empowerment, and self-sufficiency. Through community partnerships, Suzy’s Place raises awareness, provides services, and educates community members about domestic violence.
Vision
