We explain how to use the courts, welfare, social services, housing, and other community agencies in order to attain short and long-term goals. Independence House is the only community-based resource center on Cape Cod providing a full range of services for battered women and sexual assault survivors. We accept all people regardless of race, origin, religion, age, income, marital status, lifestyle or sexual preference. Individuals are not required to press charges against an abuser or sexual assault offender to receive services. Independence House is supported by full-time staff and volunteers.
Services are free and confidential.
