Emergency ShelterWe have two emergency shelters providing services to survivors of domestic violence in Gwinnett and Fulton County.

- Crisis Line - 404-873-1766
While many of our callers are in immediate danger, we also assist people with loved ones struggling with domestic violence or those who just need a chance to talk as they try to decide the next steps. The crisis line is always open and available.
- Outreach & Prevention
Education is the key to ending domestic violence. PADV strives to inform our community about the many intricacies of domestic violence and what we all need to do to prevent and end it.
- Supportive Housing
PADV's Supportive Housing Program provides an important bridge to self-sufficiency for domestic violence survivors and their children. We partner with property owners and landlords in order for this program to be a success.
- Community Support Groups
There is power and support when we come together to help each other. At PADV, we provide community support groups to survivors of domestic violence.
Counseling and TherapyOur team of licensed therapists and interns specializes in trauma-informed care. We offer individual counseling sessions tailored to meet the unique needs of survivors.
- Mental Health Resource Sessions
Our Triage Specialist provides relevant resources and referrals to individuals impacted by domestic violence. We collaborate with community organizations, legal services, and shelters to ensure survivors have access to comprehensive support.

From Sugar Hill to conversations that cross borders, community is at the heart of PADV’s work.
