Programs: Crossroads assists victims of domestic violence with emergency shelter, food, clothing and medical care during their stay. We are open 24/7/365, and our residents are able to stay with us a maximum of eight-weeks. We also serve non-resident clients with outreach advocacy. Individuals and families reach us through our crisis line, which is answered by a trained advocate who will assist with safety planning, trauma informed care and advocacy. Along with our shelter and outreach programs, we provide legal advocacy, a Domestic Abuse Response Team (DART) that assists at an incident site, Road to Home Rapid Rehousing Program, Youth and Family Advocacy, a Bilingual Program and on-site law representation through our Bringing Justice Home Project. Our prevention program features Time to Talk, a peer education program with the Poudre School District on teen dating violence and how to foster healthy relationships. Crossroads aspires to create a future without domestic violence. We will continue to focus on sheltering, outreach and prevention with an eye toward doing all that we possibly can to reduce the need for our services.
