COURT ADVOCACY
Court Advocates
Our Court Advocates provide support and follow-up services to those survivors participating in the criminal justice system as related to domestic violence or sexual violence charges as well as the civil justice system. These advocates are available to assist with the filing of Orders of Protection, with physical accompaniment to court proceedings, and with coordinating their case with Victim Witness, the Prosecuting Attorney, and police investigators.
Advocates provide supportive crisis counseling and education to victims, survivors, friends and family of victims of domestic or sexual violence. Advocates educate on the dynamics of violence, safety plan, provide community referrals and support. Advocates offer victims information about the different options available to them and support victims’ decision-making. Advocates do not tell victims what to do. Advocates are also committed to maintaining the highest level of confidentiality in the communications with victims.

EMERGENCY SHELTER SERVICES
What is our program?
The Beloved Advocacy Center offers emergency shelter and support services primarily for individuals (18 and older) and their dependent children who are fleeing domestic violence or have experienced sexual violence. Age-appropriate service coordination is provided to all members of the family while in residence. Residents receive support in identifying employment, housing, and other support opportunities in the community.
Where would I live?
Individuals and families in shelter live in a communal environment, with bedroom suits, telephone, kitchen, and other living space. While individuals and families are provided with basic necessities during their stay in addition to service coordination, residents are also responsible for helping to maintain a safe and clean emergency shelter for all residents.
How do I get into shelter?
Call our hotline at 740-947-1611, 24/7, to speak with one of our advocates about our program.
If you are in immediate danger, call 911!
