Support starts with a conversation. 💜 If you’re not ready to call or visit, Hope Chat is here for you 24/7.

𝗛𝗼𝗽𝗲 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘄𝗮𝘀 𝗱𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗹𝗼𝗽𝗲𝗱 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗶𝗻𝗱𝗶𝘃𝗶𝗱𝘂𝗮𝗹𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝗼 𝗺𝗮𝘆 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗯𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗱𝘆 𝘁𝗼 𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗼𝗿 𝘃𝗶𝘀𝗶𝘁 𝗢𝗻𝗲 𝗦𝗮𝗳𝗲 𝗣𝗹𝗮𝗰𝗲, 𝗯𝘂𝘁 𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝗮 𝘁𝗿𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗰𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗮𝘀𝗸 𝗾𝘂𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀.

Built by domestic violence experts and powered by AI, Hope Chat is available 24/7 and removes common barriers to reaching out, including time and fear of judgment.

Hope Chat provides basic information and identifies One Safe Place services best suited to their specific concerns and needs. More than pointing to a program, it's a way of showing someone that help exists and that a life beyond violence is possible.

Hope Chat does not replace the vital, in-person experience of coming to One Safe Place. Instead, it gives people a quiet, private space to explore their relationship and understand what to expect before they walk through our doors.

And when someone is ready to talk with us, we will be here, just as we always have.

As we celebrate another incredible milestone, we're excited to share highlights from our June 2026 graduation! This album captures a special evening honoring the accomplishments of 72 graduates who completed The Ladder at One Safe Place programs during the first half of the year. 🎓✨

This ceremony celebrated resilience, perseverance, and the power of education. Our graduates worked hard to build new skills, strengthen their confidence, and take meaningful steps toward brighter futures.

We were honored to hear from our Student Commencement Speaker, Meiko Ang, whose inspiring story reminded us that growth is possible through determination and courage. We also proudly recognized Lou Thomas as the recipient of the Sharon Cox Award, honoring exceptional perseverance, leadership, and commitment throughout the program.

Most importantly, we celebrate every graduate who crossed the stage and joined us in celebrating this milestone. Completing a program takes dedication, courage, and hard work, and we couldn't be prouder of each and every one of you. Your achievements inspire us, and we look forward to seeing all that you accomplish next.

A heartfelt thank you to our dedicated instructors, One Safe Place staff, partner agencies, volunteers, family members, and guests who continue to encourage and support our students every step of the way. Your belief in our mission helps make these achievements possible.
