Our Mission
Eliminate domestic violence in our community through multi-faceted programs. We believe that with all our might, we can make a difference.


 Philosophy

Hightower House provides assistance with temporary emergency shelter, affordable housing, advocacy, and individual and group supportive services to abused women in transition and their children; intervention services for abusers to learn accountability for their choices and actions; and education programs to build awareness of domestic violence among professionals who encounter victims and abusers, students in classrooms, and the community-at-large. Our mission-focused work is guided by our philosophy.

 "Early intervention, prevention education, domestic violence education, and community awareness can interrupt the inter-generational cycle of violence and reduce the social acceptance of domestic violence."

Zaneta V. Hightower
