Clackamas Women's Services

Mission

Clackamas Women’s Services breaks the isolation of domestic and sexual violence. 

Every day, Clackamas Women's Services provides safety, healing, and hope for survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, child and elder abuse, and human trafficking. Through emergency shelter, advocacy, counseling, and housing support, we help individuals and families rebuild their lives.

Lasting change takes a community. When people invest in CWS, they're creating opportunities for safety, dignity, and a future free from violence. Together, we're building a safer community where everyone can thrive.

Bottom Line

❤️In 2026, CWS provided direct support to more than 2,540 survivors, reaching more people than ever before. Behind every number is a person who found safety, hope, and the chance to begin again. At a time when domestic violence and sexual assault are receiving greater national attention, our message is simple: help is available. CWS stands beside survivors every step of the way, helping them reclaim their safety, their independence, and their future.

🏠In 2026, our emergency shelter provided refuge to 197 individuals escaping violence. For many, walking through our doors marked the beginning of a new chapter, one filled with safety, support, and the opportunity to rebuild their lives free from fear.

🐾CWS is one of the few shelters in the region that welcomes pets alongside survivors fleeing abuse. Last year, 65 companion animals stayed safely with their families or transitioned with them into permanent housing, ensuring survivors never have to choose between their own safety and that of a beloved pet.

Quote

"When you're surrounded by people who understand what you've been through, you don't have to explain everything. Just being together creates a sense of connection, and for the first time in a long time, I felt safe, supported, and less alone."  — CWS Shelter, Housing, and Counseling Participant
