Faith Communities

There are many ways to get involved with Helpmate!

Thank you for your interest in supporting the work Helpmate does to prevent and address domestic violence in our community.  We know that this situation is more common than most people think, and it exists in every part of society, including faith communities.  Your congregation has a unique opportunity to be part of the solution and actually save lives.  There are many ways to get involved with Helpmate, and we appreciate your consideration.


PRINTED MATERIALS

We are happy to provide printed materials, English or Spanish, for your congregation that describes our services:

  • Tear off Hotline flyers for restroom doors
  • Rack cards in display holders about Helpmate
  • Small tri-fold brochures about our work to support survivors
  • Flyers suitable for bulletin boards


INFORMATION

We can provide language suitable for inclusion in a Sunday bulletin or a sermon.
