TEXAS WOMEN
SHELTERS
Texas Women shelters are an
important life-saving solution to ensure the safety and protection
of the victims of domestic violence, especially for low-income women
who may lack resources to find help elsewhere.
Shelters offer
refuge and crisis intervention. Other essential victim services
include: legal, economic, housing, medical advocacy, court
accompaniment, employment and job training assistance, support
groups and child care and special children's counseling
programs.
