About WINGS

The mission of WINGS Program, Inc. is to provide housing, integrated services, education and advocacy to end domestic violence. Established in 1985, WINGS provides a pathway to independence for victims, including emergency safe shelter and transitional housing. WINGS also helps families who are in crisis with basic needs for items such as food and clothing.

 

WINGS relies on in-kind donations, ranging from cleaning supplies to medicine to hygiene products, from individuals, local businesses and faith communities. Throughout the year, these donations play a big role in supporting the work they do.
