Our Mission:

It is the mission of Safe Passage to promote the right of all to nonviolent and abuse-free relationships through advocacy, intervention and prevention in DeKalb County

About Safe Passage

Safe Passage is DeKalb Countyโ€™s only Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault Crisis Center.  We provide a wide range of services to survivors and their loved ones including shelter, counseling, advocacy, and so much more. All survivor services are completely free, confidential, and available to all, no matter your age, gender, or when the abuse occurred.  The vision at Safe Passage is a world without violence where all are safe. Together, we believe that future is possible.

As a trauma-informed agency, Safe Passage acknowledges that systems of oppression impact survivors of interpersonal violence in many different ways. We strive to promote diversity, equity, and inclusion practices at the center of our daily work to honor the unique journeys of our clients, staff, and community. Join us in our commitment to dismantle these systems of social and racial injustice through continued education and advocacy. Together we have the power to create a violence-free community.

New Beginnings

With the ever-present demands of our families and individuals seeking out help and support, Safe Passage is now at a point where we must build a new beginning.

Healthy relationships make healthy communities. When we learn what respect, communication, and trust look like at home and in our relationships, those values ripple outward shaping safer schools, workplaces, and neighborhoods. 

It starts with us because when relationships are healthy, our whole community thrives. #healthyrelationships #stopthehurt #whataboutlove
Healthy love looks better than any filter. It's not about the perfect picture. It's about real moments built on respect, trust, and kindness. Real connection doesn't need editing. It just grows, genuine and strong. What does healthy love mean to you? #healthyrelationships #stopthehurt #whataboutlove
