The
Domestic Violence Project, Inc. (Massillion Police Department - Canton, OH) was
created to provide safe shelter, counseling and preventive education to break
the cycle of violence in the community. We offer a Family Violence Information
Line (453-SAFE) 24 hours a day, 7 days a week for immediate help, shelter
information or referrals. All calls are confidential.
The shelter provides FREE housing on an emergency
24 hour daily basis to women and children who are victims of domestic violence.
During their stay at the shelter, Case Management Services link residents with
needed housing, legal and financial referrals. http://www.massillonohio.com/police/domestic.html

The mission
of Alternative House is to facilitate the creation of a society in which
violence against women will no longer exist. As a means to this end, we offer
shelter, support, options, counseling and advocacy for all battered women (and
their children) who seek our help. We are committed to the empowerment of women
toward self sufficiency. We do not discriminate against any race, class,
culture, age group or sexual orientation.
In addition, we provide community education to reform societal attitudes that
allow violence against women. Alternative
House is a member agency of Jane Doe, Inc.

My name is Nancy Hulse, and I am a performance artist and educator who produces
live, Multi-Media programs dealing with the issues of violence against women.
My shows combine Live Music, Dance, Poetry, Dialogue, Lighting Effects, and
Video Projection into a dynamic presentation that audiences won't soon forget.
If you are a College Programming or Student activity group, Women's Center,
Women's Shelter or other institution looking for a unique and dynamic way to
inform and teach about issues such as: Domestic Violence, Rape, Date Rape,
Violence Against Women, Battering, Acquaintance Rape, Feminism, Abuse, Emotional
Abuse, Sexual Abuse, Incest, or Women's Issues in general, you have found an
original way to "get the message out"!
