Walk In My Shoes Event

February 2, we are participating in a “Walk In My Shoes Event” with Lauren Book. Who is an author and survivor of childhood sexual abuse. To read more about Lauren Book please visit her website at www.Laurenskids.org

Lauren annually walks from the home where the abuse began all the way to Tallahassee’s Capitol. On February 2, she is walking through Brevard County, she will begin her walk from the Hilton Rialto in Melbourne at 9am and walk straight to the Women’s Center, the walk is approximately 5 miles. She stops at the Women’s Center for a meet and greet , hands out tee-shirts and bracelets. If unable to participate in the walk, we welcome everyone to join us at the Women’s Center as she arrives to cheer her on. We anticipate that the walk may take 60 minutes arriving at the Women’s Center around 10:00am. The Center will have refreshments, granola bars and fresh fruits to hand out.

Hope to see you there!.

Women's Center, North

The Women’s Center expanded its services to Titusville to serve the communities of North Brevard County back in May of 2010. Since this expansion, the Titusville office has really started to prove its need and impact in North Brevard. There is a significant rise in the number of clients we have been seeing. This has been aided by our new Hotline which has already resulted in a number of clients being provided emergency housing to get them out of dangerous domestic violence situations.The most exciting news of all is that the shelter is under construction now and will be completed by January 2012. Sign up to receive our newsletter and stay informed of the continuous changes the Women's Center makes to help women change their lives for the better, forever.
