We Can Help
Safe Berks, formerly Berks Women in Crisis, provides a safe haven and ongoing support system for victims of domestic violence and sexual assault.
Red Flags of Abuse
Abusers use specific behaviors to control victims. Red Flags include: history of abusing others; excessive flattery and/or criticism; extreme jealousy; always wanting to know where you are; & accusations of infidelity. Watch out for Red Flags and reach out for advice or help.
- Our services are available to all victims and survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault.
- Trained advocates answer our English and Spanish hotline 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
- We offer emergency shelter, counseling, legal support and advocacy, and in some cases, legal representation.
- Safe Berks community educators offer programs to raise awareness, and to prevent domestic and sexual violence.
