The mission of Communities Overcoming Violent Encounters (COVE) is to provide shelter, protection and advocacy to victims of domestic violence and sexual assault as well as to educate the community on the root causes of violence. Services are provided in Mason, Lake and Oceana to all individuals. To make informed decisions for themselves and their children, survivors need access to safety and information about domestic and sexual violence, available options, and community resources. Beyond COVE being a safe place, the goal is to encourage, listen and provide advocacy and resources to both residential and non-residential clients helping them build their knowledge, courage and ability to make changes in their lives that will assist them in removing themselves and their children from violence they have experienced. Donations stay here local to be used in Mason, Lake and Oceana counties.
