The Julian Center offers a broad range of services to women and
children who are victims of abuse and assault, including counseling,
safe shelter, and education.
Many women and children experience the trauma of emotional, physical,
and sexual abuse. Counseling at The Julian Center provides intensive
dynamic psychotherapy, support, and education to promote healing
and positive change for survivors of violence or other life crises.
Safe shelter from an abusive situation can often be a matter
of life or death for women and children. To support their survival,
The Julian Center operates a secure shelter for victims of domestic
violence where they receive emergency housing, counseling, and
support services to assist them along the journey of recovery.
The concept of our transitional
unit is that of a therapeutic community.
This model is the template for a highly structured program,
which aims to achieve behavioral and cognitive changes for our
women. It is a
comprehensive, therapeutic and educational program designed to
incorporate awareness, accountability, responsibility, and
empowerment of women in a protected positive atmosphere.
A critical part of The Julian Center mission is to raise public
awareness of violence against women and the tremendous emotional,
physical, and economic costs of this violence. Members of our
staff and Speakers Bureau are
available for presentations to your group or organization.
