Call us immediately for emergency shelter
The Lee Conlee House offers a 24-bed emergency shelter facility, which is a secured and staffed facility in a confidential location. Our goal is to provide an emergency shelter environment in a residential home atmosphere with the hope of making your stay as comfortable as possible. We understand you are faced with difficult decisions. Advocates are available to our residents at any time and on any day to talk and support you through the transition of living in an abusive relationship to living one of safety and peace.
Our Outreach Program saves lives
Our outreach program is available Monday through Friday. It is offered in multiple locations to make services accessible to those who need them in Putnam County. Advocates provide services by appointment only. Each of our professionals and volunteers understand how difficult it can be living in a violent relationship and how hard it is to make decisions alone.
Our advocates are available to sit and talk with you one-on-one while giving you the support you need in making important decisions that are best for you and your children. Also, we will make the referrals you need to assist you with securing the appropriate resources that are available for you.
