Our Mission
Our mission be a resource for prevention and a refuge for survivors that promotes holistic healing while we work to end domestic violence against women, youth, and young adults.
Our Vision
Although domestic violence knows no boundaries as it relates age, race, religion, sexual orientation and socioeconomic background, the fact remains that BIPOC; women in particular, suffer disproportionately at a rate of 1 in 3; 45.1% of black women experience intimate partner violence. Therefore, it is our heart, our passion, our commitment at Ishshah’s Place to serve as a conduit by which life transformations take place; empowering women and youth in marginalized communities with IPV preventive services and survivor support and resources to aid in becoming free of abuse and self-sufficient through crisis intervention, personal, professional, and spiritual advancement.
