Domestic Violence Victim Assistance in Greater Phoenix
Shelter Without Walls
Our domestic violence program addresses the unmet needs of Maricopa County survivors of domestic violence
and their children, female or male, who are residing outside of a shelter
setting, and are struggling to attain and/or maintain safety and independence,
whether or not still living with their abuser. SWW targets survivors of
domestic violence identified as “falling through the cracks”:
those not yet separated, but desire to live independently from their abusive
partners and need assistance to do so safely; survivors transitioning
out of local shelters after a 30 to 120-day stay; and survivors living
independently from their abusive partners but who are disconnected from
services and struggling to remain independent.
The following are services provided through Shelter Without Walls Domestic

stay safe.
All cases are handled in the strictest confidence.
