Mission Statement
To reduce victimization with a safety net of crisis advocacy services.
Description
FACES has a multi-agency team approach to serving victims of sexual assault, domestic violence, child abuse, elder abuse and marginalized communities. We triage to provide a safety net for victims through immediate legal, medical and educational services in a respectful manner. Victims can receive a variety of services, including medical exams and treatment, safety planning and help with protection orders, speak to law enforcement and prosecutors, receive legal aid assistance, and Health and Welfare services, to name a few. Our building houses Saint Alphonsus, St. Luke's-CARES, Boise Police Department, Health and Welfare and the Women's and Children's Alliance. We also offer educational services, such as an empowerment class. We are approximately one of eight family justice centers in the nation that addresses both children and adult needs in one facility.
