2024 "Play it Forward"

At Liberty House our mission is to provide shelter and services to victims of domestic violence and their children. Unfortunately, children often feel that they have no voice in situations of domestic violence. They are exposed to physical, emotional, psychological, and financial abuse which all have a traumatic impact on a child. One in 15 children are exposed to domestic violence each year, 90% of these children are eyewitness to violence.

On average, we serve 100 children each year in our emergency shelter. We want their time with us to be time for healing. It is important that every child, even those that experience trauma, have a chance to just be a "kid." In 2024, we launched our "Play it Forward" Campaign to raise funds for a playground. Our community was amazing in making this happen for our kids of Liberty House! In October, we opened our new playground that will last for years to come. Thank you to all of these amazing people who played a role in donating to this amazing project.
