We must insist on being a community where the most vulnerable among us can find hope, safe haven, and support—not only to escape abuse, but to establish safety and independence, and thrive in healthy relationships.

Offices Closed Wednesday

The Friendship Center's offices will be closed to in-person visitors Wednesday, October 15.

You can always reach an advocate through our 24-hour crisis line, and we'll be open to visitors all other days this week.

Our Services

We serve those affected by domestic violence, sexual assault, and stalking in Lewis and Clark, Broadwater, and Jefferson counties. If you or someone you know needs help, we have a team of advocates who can assist you with a variety of services.
