About The Lighthouse



The Lighthouse is a private, non-profit agency dedicated to promoting the existence of a safe and peaceful home and family life environment through quality services focused on the prevention and education of family violence.

You are not alone.
You are never to blame for the abusive actions of others. While responsibility for ending abusive behavior is your partner’s and theirs alone, there are several steps you can take to protect yourself on your path to long-term safety.

Remember that you always have options: our advocates are available 24/7 by phone or chat to discuss your situation and help create a personalized safety plan that’s right for you.
