Upcoming Events
Safe Summer Break
Join us on Thursday, April 23rd from 7-9pm at the SFA Recreation Center, located at 1817 Wilson Dr., for an evening of fun and safety at Safe Summer Break!
Enjoy free food, drinks, games, and a chance to win prizes, while learning essential strategies and resources to stay safe.
As students prepare to leave campus for the break, this event focuses on being proactive about personal safety and knowing where to turn if support is ever needed. Students can stop by to visit with a variety of community organizations that will be sharing resources and helpful information!
East Texas Giving Day April 28th!
Make a difference in the lives of little survivors.
For survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault, arriving at the Safehouse is often the first moment of true safety. For the children who come with them, our playroom becomes a space to laugh, create, and just be kids again.
After years of use, this special space needs new furniture. Your gift will replace worn-out furniture with safe, comfortable pieces that support healing for both children and adults.
Together, we can create a space where families can reconnect, find comfort, and begin to rebuild.
East Texas Giving Day is open now through April 28 at midnight, and every donation makes a difference for survivors of abuse in East Texas.
Give today and bring comfort to families who need it most!
