We help survivors obtain medical care, provide translation if needed, and assist in applying for further education and jobs while working to find stable housing. In addition, we transport residents to our Crisis & Support Center to attend IPV education and support groups, Parenting in Crisis classes, and self-sufficiency workshops to learn basic skills for living, such as employment readiness and career counseling, financial management and credit counseling. Children, who need time and space to heal from their own trauma of witnessing the violence in their homes, receive age-appropriate support and are cared for while their parent receives services.During 2015, Safehouse provided 69 adults and 89 children with 6,013 bednights, 18,006 meals, and 144 bus passes. A total of 58 survivors and their 66 children exited our Safehouse shelter during that time; 42 residents found safe or stable housing; eight were without housing at exit, but former residents often secure stable housing soon after leaving. Client feedback surveys showed that 91% of the residents agreed that: The services provided by this program helped me make informed choices about my situation; and, 97% agreed that I know more about resources that may be available, including how to access them. 304262 26864 The Rural Services program provides safe and confidential services to survivors and their children of intimate personal violence in rural Lane County.Womenspace advocates are also out-stationed at over ten sites throughout Lane County, including many rural communities.

The tax benefit is measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The Organization was incorporated and operates in the State of Oregon which recognizes the 501(c)(3) nonprofit status for state tax purposes. The Organization is not aware of any activities which would terminate its tax exempt status. The Organization recognizes interest and penalties related to income tax matters in operating expenses. Management has concluded that there were no uncertain tax positions as of June 30, 2016. Tax years ending prior to June 30, 2013 are closed to examination by federal and state tax authorities. false Gala 117340 114478 2862 14566 13640 25967 Breakfast 108421 107381 1040 2326 3690 1056 225761 221859 3902 16892 17330 27023 61245 -57343 true 0 0 Direct Client Aid 71 46777 FMV Rent, utilities, supplies Emergency Travel & Shelter 370 3516 FMV Travel, medical, shelter Donated food and clothing 599 191089 FMV Clothing, food and supplies 191089 FMV 2 5623 FMV Auction Items 58 13960 FMV Event items 4 5788 FMV false false false Form 990, Part III, Line 4d: Other Program Services Description OTHER PROGRAM SERVICES 4: Womenspace has directed and established Youth Services, Community Education and Outreach, Legal Advocacy, Emergency Crisis Line, and Support Groups programs.
