Community Programs
The Women's Center of Rhode Island maintains a community presence through a number of programs intended to reach a broad constituency.A major component of our Victim Advocacy program is to support and empower the victim, validate the victim's concerns, represent the victim's wishes and promote the victim's access to services. Advocates will assist the victim in the development of a safety plan and then support the decisions made through this plan.
Other Community Services programs include our 24 hour emergency hotline, volunteer training, referral to statewide resources, professional training on issues of domestic violence, community support groups and community education.
If you are interested in receiving informational materials about domestic violence, or would like more information on presentations, trainings and other community education opportunities please contact our Community Outreach Supervisor, Julie Rawlings at (401) 861-2761, ext. 124 or jrawlings@womenscenterri.org
