Some information on the Laurel Shelter
Our Mission:The Mission of the Laurel Shelter, Inc. is to empower victims of domestic violence and sexual assault by providing victim services and to prevent violence by increasing awareness of the impact these victimizations have on all members of the community.
Our History:In 1997, the Laurel Shelter, Inc. opened to provide shelter and support services for domestic violence victims. In 1999 services to victims of sexual assault and/or abuse were added and Laurel Shelter, Inc. opened a Sexual Assault crisis center in the Edgehill Shopping Center. Thanks to generous donations, the Laurel Shelter was able to open the Thrift Store in 2003.
