Hope's Door Virtual Event

Hope’s Door has remained open and fully operational since the lockdown started on March 16. Our legal center has been remotely securing orders of protection, our counselors have been available by phone and Zoom, and our hotline and shelter have remained open 24/7. To protect our shelter staff and residents, we’ve asked new clients to be COVID-19 tested and we’ve quarantined them elsewhere at our cost until it is safe to bring them in to shelter. Hope’s Door is always here for those in need, even throughout this pandemic. Women, men and children who live with domestic violence have no escape from their abusers during quarantine, and we’ve seen an alarming rise in abuse.  

Now we ask for your help. 

We are so grateful to have raised almost one third of our goal at the July 23 event. Now we must close the gap and raise $100,000 on October 1.

Will you please join us on Thursday, October 1 at 7 pm and help those who so desperately need our programs and services?

Hope’s Door is here for you, and now we are here for your pets, as well!


We have long contemplated whether or not we could somehow house the pets of our shelter residents, but the obstacles seemed too great to surmount. Until one day recently when we received a phone call from a local boarding kennel, offering to help Hope’s Door by taking in our clients’ pets while they were in shelter and empowering themselves for a new way of life.

“Mindfulness is a practice that people believe they need to "take time" to do,” says Alexa Kauffman, Hope's Door Counselor and Youth Prevention Coordinator. “I wanted to help our clients, who might not get peaceful "alone" time, to understand that by focusing on their breathing, if only for just a moment, can do wonders to helping calm the mind and body."
