The Community Resource Center is our main office and destination for survivors seeking case management, housing support, and legal services in a non-shelter setting. Open from 8:30am to 5pm Monday through Friday, the site hosts one-on-one meetings with support service staff as well as weekly support groups with childcare available for those who attend.
We encourage you and fellow community members to host gatherings, work events, and drop-off stations to collect much needed essential items and gift cards for our survivors. Aligned with our values, we kindly ask supporters to consider providing gift cards to support survivor empowerment and choice when purchasing food, essential items, and holiday gifts for their families. Some current needs include:
Rainbow receives donations of gift cards to help empower families, streamline distribution, and reduce physical inventory at our sites during the holiday season. Donations can be dropped off at our community resource center below. E-gift cards can be sent electronically to giftcards@rainbowservicesdv.org.
Online donations are also accepted. If you are interested in sponsoring a family directly, please contact brenda.magid@rainbowservicesdv.org for more information.
DONATE NOWFor the safety of our survivors, all volunteer opportunities involving direct interactions with survivors, their children, or our confidential shelter sites require the completion of the Domestic Violence 40-hour Counselor Training offered through Rainbow and local domestic violence agencies.
