About

The mission of Safe Passage is to promote the right of all to nonviolent and abuse-free relationships through advocacy, intervention and prevention in DeKalb County. Safe Passage is the domestic violence and sexual assault crisis center serving DeKalb County. Safe Passage was started in 1981 as a grassroots organization and run by volunteers wanting to create a safe place in the community for victims of domestic violence. The agency has continued to expand and add programs and services. The addition of our prevention program, transitional housing program, 24-hour emergency medical response, and expanded children’s program, has ensured we’re better equipped to empower a broad range of survivors.
