Our Mission
A Safe Place is Nantucket’s only organization offering 100% free and confidential services and programs, inclusive of trauma therapy, for survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault.
We believe that individuals have the right to live their lives free from domestic violence, sexual assault, harassment, exploitation, and bullying.
Prevention education is central to our mission.
Our public and private school classroom programs are developed using age-appropriate information and skill building with materials that are reinforced through creative projects with the Nantucket Boys & Girls Club and via featured speakers at Nantucket High School.
Collectively, our initiatives aim to help youth build and foster healthy personal relationships while also encouraging them to become mature peer and community advocates for relationships based on equality, non-violence, and respect.
As a non-profit, A Safe Place relies greatly on our fundraising efforts in order to sustain the vital services we provide within the Nantucket community. Thank you for your support of our mission.
