SAFE, Inc. provides crisis intervention and advocacy services to over 5,000 domestic violence victims each year in the DC Metro Area. Our mission is to ensure the safety and self-determination of domestic violence survivors in Washington, DC through emergency services, court advocacy and system reform.

Through our 24-hour Response Line and Court-based services, we provide valuable information and tangible services such as immediate crisis shelter within one hour of a violence incident, transportation to a safe location, legal information and more to survivors in order to help them break the cycle of violence, reduce the likelihood of future abuse, and decrease the risk of homicide.
