Who We Are
Women Aware is open and operational 24 hours per day, 365 days per year. Services are accessed through our 24-hour hotline, either directly or through a referral source. We provide emergency shelter for women and their children. Any woman able to care for herself and her children in a congregate living environment and who is homeless as a result of domestic violence is eligible for services. A full spectrum of ancillary support services are available to anyone concerned with issues of domestic violence of Middlesex County, whether or not they are in need of shelter.
What We Do
The vision of Women Aware, Inc. is to provide the victims of domestic violence the same level of service regardless of economic income, race, age, sexual orientation, and gender, because all people deserve the same core services. Domestic Violence is a social justice issue and we are strongly committed to eradicating this social ill! Over 31 years ago, Women Aware, Inc. was founded on the belief that every human being has the right to live free from violence and the fear of violence. At present, Women Aware serves up to ten families in a nine bedroom, 24 bed facility. In addition, we now also provide a comprehensive continuum of care that improves the health and well being of the families who look to us for safety, strength and hope. In the process, we are changing lives.
