CHALLENGE #24 - 2016

DOMESTIC VIOLENCE PROGRAM OF CROSSROADS
Providence, Rhode Island

****CHALLENGE COMPLETED****

After a 3-year affiliation between Crossroads Rhode Island and the Women's Center of Rhode Island, the two organizations merged in July, 2016, to become the Domestic Violence Program of Crossroads. As one organization, they provide integrated services to address the unique needs of domestic violence survivors, as they work with them to break the cycle of violence and find secure, stable housing.


The Domestic Violence Program is primarily an emergency shelter program with a focus on safety and housing. The shelter provides safety for DV survivors and their children in a confidential location separate from other Crossroads properties.

Since they have limited long-term storage space, we would like to provide Crossroads with the following slippers and washcloths. Please use gender neutral colors for the preteens, youths, toddlers, and booties. Thank you.
