Clackamas Women's Services
Mission
Clackamas Women’s Services breaks the isolation of domestic and sexual violence. We provide housing programs and many other resources for children and adults escaping domestic and sexual violence, child and elder abuse, stalking, dating violence, and trafficking.
Bottom Line for Portland
We provide supportive housing services that include housing referrals and resources to survivors, keeping them safe as they achieve their goals for safety and autonomy. We believe safety is the foundation upon which wellness is built, and that it is a right every human deserves. Generous community support empowers us to increase access to safe shelter, housing, and other resources which are needed more than ever. Last year, 436 adults and 495 kids were safely housed across our continuum of resources, an increase of 238% from 2022, with nearly half of our housing participants identifying as BIPOC.

“If it wasn’t for CWS, I would be living back with my abuser. They gave me a fresh start to a new life I’ve only been able to dream about. I’m so grateful for everyone that I want to cry. I’m over the moon with joy and feel it’s too good to be true.” -CWS Shelter Participant
