The Roswell Refuge
Our Vision is Realistic
Help by Donating Today
At The Roswell Refuge we are working to create hope and the opportunity for a better world. But we can only do it with your help. Join with us in our mission and donate now.
The mission of the Roswell Refuge for Battered Adults is to provide a safe environment and advocacy for victims of domestic violence, sexual assault, and to educate the community about the effects of domestic/sexual assault violence on adults, children, and the community-at-large.
We want the people affected by our efforts to notice real improvements.
By building on our past successes and establishing strategic priorities, we will have the foundation to become stronger and more efficient than ever.
The Power to Effect Change
At The Roswell Refuge, we never lose sight of what drives our efforts: Dedicated people who are ready to make change happen now.
About Us
The Roswell Refuge was established after a young woman was shot and killed by her estranged husband one evening as she left work. Her co-workers joined together to provide safe transportation and accommodations for those in abusive relationships. The Roswell Refuge had its humble beginnings in the basement of a local church and has grown to our present day facility which can house up to 40 adults and children.
Without this strong base of dedicated volunteers, and financial support from individuals and businesses, we would still be working in a basement offering bare minimum services to those victims.
