PeaceWorks

Based on Love. Fostered with Compassion

PeaceWorks is a non-profit 501(c)3 charity providing assistance for survivors of  relationship violence/abuse: intimate partner violence (IPV), domestic violence, teen dating violence and stalking; sex trafficking and sexual assault outside of relationship violence. PeaceWorks owns and operates Mountain Peace Shelter, a temporary secure and confidential home for individuals, families and pets that are experiencing IPV. But, it is so much more.

The shelter began in the basement of a community member who saw the need to create a safe space for the victims in her town experiencing IPV. Since then, that vision has grown, and PeaceWorks and its programming and services are the fruit of that vision.

Our Mission

PeaceWorks is a Mountain Peace Shelter that provides advocacy and resources for survivors of intimate partner violence and abuse, sexual assault, teen dating violence, and stalking. PeaceWorks is culturally responsive and fosters social change by offering prevention and education initiatives, crisis intervention, emergency safe shelter services, and healing-centered, trauma-informed care for clients and families, including pets. PeaceWorks also operates a donation-based Community Wellness Program that encourages personal wellbeing, healthy relationships, and safe homes.
