ADVOCACY
Promise Keepers Alliance, Inc. is an advocacy organization that works to empower domestic abuse survivors. We offer protection from harm, access to community resources, and assistance in finding your personal strength and voice.
PROTECTION
It is a basic human right to live free of danger, pain or discomfort. As such PKA, Inc. ensures all survivors will be safe and secure while in our care. However, in order to guarantee protection, all enrollees of PKA, Inc. must comply with our golden rule of going to the local police and filing criminal charges against the abuser.
PROTECTION
Housing is one of the most essential components of survival. Traditional battered women’s shelters offer only 72 hour stays for domestic abuse victims. This short-term solution often serves to be crippling for many victims, and they often return to their abuser seeking shelter. However, Promise Keepers Alliance, Inc. seeks to eradicate this form of assistance for victims. At PKA, Inc., individuals will have full access to adequate housing for 90 days. These multiple family units will allow survivors to regain their self-confidence as well as seek education and professional training.
EDUCATION & GRADUATION
Proper education and training brings about positive changes in the lives of domestic violence victims, and PKA, Inc. empowers individuals to acquire job-specific skills that allow survivors to become worthy candidates for employment.
With this newly acquired skill set, in conjunction with the tools provided through our extensive counseling services, survivors are well-equipped to sustain themselves at the end of their 90 day enrollment. At the end of the stay, attendees also participate in a commencement ceremony that signifies the huge accomplishment they have fulfilled through our program.
It is the ultimate goal of Promise Keepers Alliance, Inc. to provide survivors with opportunities that allow them to sustain themselves beyond our walls.
