Safe Harbor Crisis Center - Layton, Utah

Familiar F.

Genuinely an example of what communities of individuals who share a goal of being part of the solution to victims fleeing domestic violence.

Some of the most generous, compassionate individuals we've encountered.

I would really like to see more individuals in the world donate to programs like The Family Promise of Ogden, YCC, and Safe Harbor; where communities can help build a better future for those in dire needs.

Thanks Safe Harbor.

Not helpful at all. I was there for over 30 days and my Advocate did not help me with anything we talked about. She always left early and took days off and pushed me to the side. She was able to help other clients with the same things but, never me.

There should be some 24 hour crisis line listed with the hours, or a separate category for it. They have one and when its closed according to google it makes it hard for women in crisis to get immediate help when their lives and safety are at risk and they cannot call the police. A text line? Crisis line? Something. This is Google's fault not the organization but specifically why it matters to me, NOW! I already have heard about the line so i may wait because I am not in immediate danger but am preparing for possibly an immediate exit, ASAP. How? Where? Privacy? Safety? Freedom? Help? So many things to consider. Great place with great intentions, who, like so many good intentions cannot help everyone in every situation. When calling in the past in different situations, the direct but sometimes rude questionings of the secretary or college kid volunteer can make what should be obvious trust issues more apparent. This makes that divide (the same divide in every social problem). So much more important than the bureaucracy of spelling on google (or hours of operation)! Just saying.
P. S.
I obviously make bad choices and cannot tell the difference between good and bad people when falling in love. A lifetime of abuse does make it hard to communicate or associate with people who have never experienced any hardship and have relatively normal lives. We are our experiences, our past and the knowledge learned from it. No one wants to subject their loved ones to abuse, and children grow and learn what they are subjected to, abusers don't just happen, neither do victims, cycles repeat until broken free of. I am a victim of my own bad choices and victims also need to accept some responsibility (the correct responsibility) for their choices and lifestyles, this is something hard for a victim to see on their own and impossible alone. Places like this are the best of what we know. However, the elusive unknown is where trust can make the difference between staying the same and not helping or making any real lasting change. To breaking down those borders and walls in our hearts that created the divides in the first place (all of them). "People are strange, we become what we know, and ignorance is the root of all suffering."

Was given there number by the police for a domestic violence incident involving my child and I. I needed help getting protective order before my wife's court date. Tried a couple times to get help with no call back. Guess they don't help men who are being abused

Chelsi was amazing and extremely helpful and listen to everything I had to say. She gave me good resources and was very empathetic of my situation. I appreciate her and the organization very much.

They threw out all my belongs when I was in the hospital.

No help for men, men are abused emotionally and psychologically by women....but because, we men, don't show any physical wounds we are less important...these people are full of Misandry...look around...not a single man to be found in their staff, their classes...their ingrained prejudice and contempt and dislike against men is exuberant.

They do good work for abused wives and children. They accept donations of food, clothing toys and other items to care for their residents. Also accept volunteers.
