The mission of the Women's Center of Rhode Island is to end interpersonal violence. We seek to empower all we serve through culturally competent programs that provide safety, shelter and court advocacy to victims of domestic violence. We work collaboratively to prevent the occurrence of violence and to educate the community about the dynamics of violence.

Our priority list of shared values includes personal safety, interdependence, diversity, resource use, and collaboration.

 


ANNOUNCEMENTS

Helpline Volunteer Training

The next Helpline Volunteer Training sessions will be conducted on July 11th, July 18th and July 25th from 9 a.m. until 5 p.m. A variety of topics will be covered including how to respond to victims of domestic violence, safety planning, the role of a volunteer advocate, crisis intervention, the empowerment model and many more topics that will assist volunteers with their work with WCRI.

The training is free for volunteers working with our agency. If you are an individual that wishes to learn more about this issue, but do not have the time to volunteer, we ask that you make a small monetary donation to our program to attend any training session.

For more information about these training sessions, please contact Melissa England at (401) 861-2761 ex: 133.
