The Refuge of Hope
The Refuge of Hope is a domestic violence advocacy ministry in New Castle, Indiana. We are in the infant stage at this time but we are developing rapidly. The Refuge of Hope assists victims of emotional, verbal, financial, sexual, and physical abuse.
We assist in helping the victim break the cycle of abuse to become an empowered survivor by providing information, having support groups, and in the future a crisis line that is answered 24 hours a day 7 days a week. We can also give referrals to other agencies as needed, and go to court with the client as needed as a means of a support system.
