What We Do
Provide Addiction Treatment
Support for Harbor Area Women’s Lives is a three-month residential recovery program for 13 homeless, addicted women which provides comprehensive services and treatment for women who are attempting to end their addiction, live a life free from violence and become self-sufficient.
Provide Domestic Violence Education
Understanding the correlation between substance abuse and domestic violence SHAWL offers a variety of training and programs.
Provide Effective Job Training Opportunities
We partner with another non-profit called Working Wardrobes to provide our residents with a 6-week program, three times a year that covers several job-related topics.
Connect Residents to Resources
Often times, while working with their case manager, residents will discover that they have very specific needs and referrals to outside agencies are discussed and given at this time based on the need of the resident.
Provide Transitional Housing
The SHAWL Organization has two transitional housing facilities that aid women as they are transitioning from the primary 3-month program.
