NONPROFIT SPOTLIGHT: THE WOMEN’S AND CHILDREN’S ALLIANCE PROVIDING SAFETY, HEALING, AND FREEDOM TO FAMILIES IN THE TREASURE VALLEY
MISSION Safety, healing, and freedom from domestic abuse and sexual assault • WCA provides safety to domestic abuse and sexual assault victims through our two 24-hour crisis hotlines, our domestic abuse shelter, safety planning assistance, and court advocacy. • We provide healing through therapy services, support groups, and client advocacy. • We provide freedom through case management and residential classes in financial literacy, nurturing parenting, and life skills. Through these core values, we hope to provide security, hope, and empowerment and to break the cycle of violence. For more information on these and other services, visit WCABoise.org. Now more than ever, our society needs to understand how we can put an end to abuse. To learn more about how you can help the WCA achieve their vision, mission, and values, reach out to them today at (208) 343-3688. Awareness is only as good as the action that follows.
Boise is known for being one of the safest places to live in the country, but our city isn’t immune to domestic violence and sexual assault. Women are the most frequent targets of these crimes, but individuals of any gender, race, age, or economic group can be victims of violence and assault. In 2017 alone, the Ada County Sheriff’s Office received over 5,000 calls about domestic violence. Unfortunately, far more of these crimes never come to light. Various studies done by the CDC and the National Domestic Violence Hotline suggest that 50–70 percent of domestic violence cases are never reported to authorities. Burdened by fear, financial dependence, and social stigmas, many women don’t know where to turn. For over 100 years, the Women’s and Children’s Alliance (WCA) has served as a safe place for women in need of assistance, counseling, and a voice. VISION To foster a community where individuals thrive in safe, healthy relationships.
