Who we are
Safehome is a nonprofit organization and domestic violence shelter in Overland Park for survivors of domestic violence.
Our core purpose is to provide a healing atmosphere where survivors of domestic violence can gain inner strength, explore options, receive support and establish a life free of violence. Through Safehome’s shelter and other services, approximately 8,000 individuals each year receive the support they need to lead healthy, independent lives.
As the only domestic violence shelter in Johnson County, and the largest in the state of Kansas, Safehome strives to break the cycle of domestic violence and partner abuse for victims and their children.
$0.91 cents of every $1.00 donated goes to direct client care
