Dear Friends:
Thank you for visiting our new website. We invite you to learn more about domestic violence, Women In Distress, the resources available, and how you can make a difference.
This is a milestone time for Women In Distress - we are expanding to better meet community needs. During the past year, our Board of Directors grew increasingly concerned about the shortfall on emergency shelter needs - as our community has grown, so too have the demand for WID's services.
In December, the Board approved the purchase of what will become the new Jim and Jan Moran Family Center Campus in Deerfield Beach. Our current operations are separated in three locations with a total of 62 emergency shelter beds (serving all of Broward County). The new campus will enable us to increase our shelter beds by at least 60% -- to 100 beds initially– with the capacity to grow to 132 beds as needs grow and funding becomes available.

Thank You,
Mary Riedel, President and CEO

A special thank you to AT&T who provided funding to redesign our website.
