The decision to reach out for help doesn’t always come easily. For many survivors of domestic violence, it can take days, months, or even years. When that moment comes, Sojourner is here, ready to respond with compassion, safety, and unwavering support.

A Legacy of Safety and Hope

For over 50 years, Sojourner has been a pillar of peace in Milwaukee, walking alongside survivors as they take their first steps toward safety and healing.

 
 

Thanks to the power of community—and supporters like you—we’ve helped thousands begin again.

What Your Gift Makes Possible in the First 24 Hours

Your support is put to work immediately. In the very first day, a survivor at Sojourner receives:

  • Safety – An assessment of their immediate needs.

  • Comfort – Assistance with basic essentials.

  • Support – Personalized guidance and trauma-informed care.

  • Connection – Access to multiple on-site partners at the Family Peace Center offering legal aid, medical care, mental health counseling, and more.

We help survivors gather the pieces they need to rebuild—at their own pace, in their own way.
