Safety is not a privilege. It's a right. And yet for so many survivors, feeling safe at home is something they've never known. At the Domestic Violence Shelter of Wilmington, we exist to change that — one family, one night, one life at a time. You deserve safety. We're here when you're ready.

Did you know? Domestic violence is the leading cause of homelessness for women and children in the U.S.

Behind every statistic is a real face. A real family. A mom who had to choose between staying in danger or stepping into the unknown with nothing but her kids and a prayer.

That's why we exist. Not just to offer a bed — but to offer a bridge. To stability. To safety. To a life that feels like theirs again.
If you or someone you know needs help, we're here Wilmington.
