Accompaniment: If you are a woman who needs emotional and physical support when dealing with issues, Centre staff may accompany you to court or to appointments with other agencies.
Community Development: SSWC is involved within the social and economic support of our community. SSWC staff members work with women in their community to identify problems and mobilize skills and resources to develop a response to an issue.
Community Education Presentations and
Workshops: A key goal for SSWC is prevention, education and
public awareness. One way we achieve this is by making presentations
and conducting workshops for schools, community colleges, service
clubs, professional associations, industry and private business and
church groups.
Crisis Intervention: SSWC works with women in crisis to help solve immediate problems. SSWC can also provide follow-up support after the crisis to assist women in putting their lives back together again.
Outreach: As much as is feasible, SSWC provides
services and programs to women and their families who are isolated by
travel distance and travel costs. Programs will come to you.
