Gateway's North residential program offers a 30-day program for women
and children fleeing domestic violence. The North Shelter provides
women with confidentiality and safety, enabling the rebuilding of a
life free from abuse.
Our Nonresidential Program helps to empower women and children who are survivors by providing them with the tools, counseling and resources needed to continue to build strength.
Gateway battered women's shelter residential program provides
confidential emergency housing to women and their children who are
victims of domestic violence.
Gateway's 24-hour Crisis Line is often a victim's first step towards
making others aware of their situation and getting the help they need.
Our Crisis Line is staffed with trained counselors and volunteers ready
to listen and give referrals to women who are experiencing
psychological and physical abuse in their relationships.
At the Aurora Municipal Court, Gateway houses a Court Advocacy Program
(CAP) that provides victims of domestic violence with emotional
support, information on their legal options and court processes -
giving women the resources they need to make positive legal choices and
a much-needed voice within the Criminal Justice System.
