Community Resources

If you have decided to leave an abusive situation, we want to help make you aware of valuable community resources doing work beyond our scope that can still help in your long-term plan to a life free fromviolence.  Please see our list of resources that may be of benefit to you as you are developing your safety plan: 

We highly recommend the Cabell County Quick Guide as an easy to read reference point for a wide variety of community resources.  

If you are in search of housing resources in the area--or interested in what programs exist to assist families out of homelessness--we recommend the following places:

As spring rains roll in, we’re collecting umbrellas to support survivors in our community.

Many of our clients rely on walking or public transportation to get to work, appointments, and school—often waiting outside for long periods of time, no matter the weather. An umbrella may seem like a small thing, but it can make a big difference in staying dry, comfortable, and cared for during those daily routines.

If you’d like to donate umbrellas, we’d love your support!

Donations can be arranged by calling 304-529-2382 (Cabell) or 304-586-3865 (Putnam) and speaking with an advocate.

Branches is thankful for support for our Putnam County Emergency shelter from United Way of Central WV.
