Welcome to Project DOVE
Project DOVE offers safe refuge and support
to victims of domestic and sexual violence. Our
programs and services inform survivors of their options and support
them in their choices. A cornerstone of our philosophy is respect for
survivors' rights including the right to decide whether to report
to the police the crime or crimes committed against them. We work with
survivors of any race, gender, color, creed, religious belief, or sexual
orientation.

We are requesting that community members help us with our 911 Cell Phone Drive. Drop any old cell phones by our office (585 NW 1st Street, Ontario OR) or look for drop boxes in the area. Some people have mailed them to us. Our mailing address is: P.O. Box 980 Ontario OR 97914. We can either reuse the phones for 911 emergencies for our clients or we can have them recycled. Thank-you!

Hotline
Our hotline is available 24 hours a day, every day of the year,
serving callers in English, Spanish, and other languages. We are the
only agency in our community which provides crisis intervention and
supportive services to victims of domestic and sexual violence.
Shelter
We offer emergency shelter around the clock,
typically serving between 350 and 500 victims yearly. In
addition to a safe place to stay, we provide safety planning,
advocacy, and referrals to other community resources.
Crisis Intervention and Support
Survivors of domestic violence can receive advocacy on a walk-in basis
from Project Dove staff. We offer survivor support groups in English and Spanish, with a children's group meeting at the same time.
Women in Transition
Survivors of domestic and sexual violence sometimes need support for
an extended time. Our Women in Transition program helps survivors
rebuild self-esteem and gain new skills.
