A message form the Director:

This has been an incredibly busy year for the Dawn Center shelter. We have averaged on a daily basis at least 30 women and children and by the time this year ends there will be more than 30,000 meals prepared at the Dawn Center.

The Dawn Center has made many efforts in the community to create awareness of domestic violence through education and partnerships. We work very closely with the Hernando County Sheriff’s Office and other community agencies to raise awareness as well as through cross training. A lot of our training is state required but the Dawn Center strives to develop new and innovative programs to facilitate community awareness. Domestic violence has dramatically risen this past year and we need the community more than ever to continue to provide the services needed. I would like to thank all of the businesses and individuals that support the Dawn Center throughout the year.
