The philosophy of the Ho-Chunk Nation Domestic Abuse Program is that tribal members and their families deserve to live in a non-violent and non-threatening environment. We have the right to be treated with dignity and respect. The Ho-Chunk Nation Domestic Abuse Program is committed to zero-tolerance from abuse of any kind. We are dedicated to the empowerment of survivors and their children, to feel safe within their homes and begin to lead a healthy lifestyle. We support efforts to eliminate violence by increasing community awareness and promote a safe home, workplace and our communities. We offer support services to domestic abuse victims and their families.
Eligibility: Native American ages 18 to 59 and residing in the 15 county service area.
Services provided: Supportive listening, domestic abuse education, support groups, community education, referral resources, shelter assistance, transportation, legal advocacy (information and referral), safety planning and workshops.
