Did you know that 1 in 2 women experience domestic violence?

Our director of victim services, Latoya Shephard, recently spoke with WATE about the importance of raising awareness within the community about how common domestic violence can be and the resources available to victims and survivors.

YWCA Knoxville & the Tennessee Valley's Victim Advocacy Program provides lifesaving, non-shelter services for victims and survivors of domestic violence such as safety planning, danger assessments, court accompaniment, assistance with filing orders of protection, community education, support groups and connection to community resources.

Thank you to WATE for raising awareness of this important issue. Learn more by watching the segment: https://www.wate.com/news/top-stories/ywca-knoxville-domestic-violence-awareness/.

Anyone interested in scheduling a free DV 101 training for a group or organization can contact us at [email protected] or 865-523-6126.

Thank you, Denark Construction, for highlighting our beautifully renovated building! This project would not have been possible without the hard work of the Denark team. We're proud to have partnered on a project that earned the 2026 Knox Heritage East Tennessee Preservation Award.

Watch the video to see the historic features we were able to preserve throughout the renovation.
