About us
The SAFE Alliance is a Central Texas nonprofit organization working to stop abuse for everyone. SAFE supports children, adults, and families who have experienced abuse by providing safety, stability, and healing. To more effectively put an end to child abuse, sexual assault, domestic violence, and sex trafficking, SAFE provides shelter, counseling, legal assistance, sexual assault forensic exams, supervised visitation and exchange services, and more. In addition to direct services, SAFE works to prevent violence before it occurs through parenting assistance and education, programs that promote healthy teen relationships, and working with communities disproportionately affected by abuse. Violence and abuse are a cycle, often transferred across generations. We work to break that cycle. Central Texans may know our work in its iterations through different names and mergers over the past 50 years we've served survivors of violence and abuse. Today, we are known as SAFE - a national leader in innovative and effective programs that provide a sense of safety, dignity, and hope for survivors of sexual assault, child abuse, sex trafficking, and domestic violence in Central Texas. With an annual budget of more than $20 million, more than 350 employees and thousands of volunteers, SAFE now has prevention and crisis programs operating across multiple campuses and in the schools, hospitals, courts, county and District Attorney’s offices. NEED HELP? SAFEline is a 24-hour confidential hotline for people seeking help with sexual or domestic violence, child abuse, human trafficking, or parenting support and is available by phone at 512.267.SAFE (7233), by text at 737.888.7233, or by online chat at safeaustin.org/chat.

Earlier this week, our SAFEline team learned of the sudden passing of our dear advocate, Bryan Garcia. Bryan was a cherished member of our community and a dedicated leader. Our hearts are with his family during this difficult time. A GoFundMe has been set up to help with funeral expenses: https://lnkd.in/g__rFcnU

Today is #GivingTuesday! Last year SAFE supported nearly 6,000 individuals with the resources they need to access safety, healing, and hope. SAFE provides free services for survivors of child abuse, domestic violence, sexual assault, and sex trafficking. Across all our programs, we house nearly 900 adults and children every day. This powerful impact would not be possible without the generous support and care of friends like you. On Giving Tuesday, an international day of giving, we can come together to make our community safer. Give now at https://lnkd.in/grQt9_hM!

This year, we are thankful for Reagen Ward, who is providing the Thanksgiving meal being served at our shelter, in honor of his mother, Nancy Rogers, who passed away last year. Nancy was an avid supporter of domestic violence shelters and her legacy of giving is continuing through another generation thanks to Reagen. We would love to know: who is inspiring you to give this holiday season?

Thanksgiving: Monday November 25 Tuesday November 26 Wednesday November 27 Christmas and New Year: Monday December 23 Tuesday December 24 Monday December 30 Tuesday December 31 Thursday January 2 Friday January 3 Lunch is served at noon daily, so delivery before then is most appreciated.
