Because all survivors of domestic violence have specific, individual needs, we include a list of various resources that we hope might be of help in the creation of their new, independent lives. Resources listed include Domestic Violence/Shelter, Referral, Family and Children, Health Care, Education Services and Organizations, and Employment. For guidance with resource options please contact Web of Benefit, 617-285-1900.
