Individual Counseling
Staff and trained volunteers are available for in-office crisis counseling on a walk
in basis to clients dealing with rape, incest or domestic violence. Call the 24-hour
crisis lines for more information, or walk-in during office hours, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.,
Monday-Friday. Spanish-speaking counselors are available.
Counselors offer crisis counseling, information, assistance with shelter, emotional
support, assistance with Domestic Violence Protective Orders and referrals to other
agencies or resources as needed. Our aim is to empower clients in immediate crisis
to make informed decisions about their situations, and to offer resources so that
they may reach their goals.
Support Groups
Interact offers support and informational groups for women who have experienced or are still experiencing domestic abuse, along with groups for survivors of rape or incest (adults only). For women who are in the domestic-violence support group, a group for their children (ages 5-13) is available in which the children can discuss their feelings about the abuse their mothers have experienced.
Interact also conducts a court-ordered educational and support group for women offenders who have been in abusive relationships. Staff and trained volunteers facilitate the groups. Call the 24-hour crisis lines to register for groups and obtain start dates. Our adult support groups are for women only.
