LSS CHOICES for Victims of Domestic Violence, Franklin County’s only domestic violence focused shelter, offers victims and their children a safe place to go to break the cycle of domestic violence and begin the healing process. Our 24-hour crisis hotline, legal and community advocates, counseling, peer support groups, and other critical services help victims leave behind abusive relationships and create a safer future for themselves and their loved ones.

I've worked for Lutheran Social Services, which operates CHOICES, for 18 years. As part of my job, I get to interview clients and share their stories with donors and other supporters. In general, the stories of CHOICES clients are the most impactful. It almost seems untrue the way an abuser can treat a victim. You just can't believe one person would do such things to another. And the victim at one point thought their abuser loved them.

Despite the trauma, the hurt and the overwhelming hardships, there is healing and hope. People do overcome. They are able to move on with their lives. It's not easy, and they need help. CHOICES is that help.
