WE OFFER SERVICES AT OUR MAIN SITE AND AT OUR FOUR SATELLITE CENTERS IN KENNETT SQUARE, PHOENIXVILLE, COATESVILLE AND OXFORD PENNSYLVANIA.

MAJOR ACHIEVEMENTS INCLUDED THE BUILDING OF "PHASE IV," A TRANSITIONAL HOUSING PROGRAM THAT CONSISTS OF THIRTEEN 3-BEDROOM TOWN HOMES FOR VICTIMS OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE AND THEIR DEPENDENT CHILDREN. THIS PROJECT WAS COMPLETED IN 2006. IN FISCAL YEAR 2013/2014 DVCCC PROVIDED DIRECT SERVICES TO 3,185 ADULT VICTIMS AND THEIR DEPENDENT CHILDREN. DURING THIS TIME WE HOUSED 85 ADULTS AND 51 CHILDREN IN EMERGENCY SHELTER AND 27 FAMILIES WERE PROVIDED WITH TRANSITIONAL HOUSING IN OUR THREE TRANSITIONAL HOUSING PROGRAMS.
