Programs and services
Individual Case Management
Advocates can help assess each client’s needs
and provide one-on-one counseling or make
appropriate referrals, such as behavioral and
mental health, special needs, and other
community programs.
Sojourner Family Peace Center offers
a variety of services provided by our
community resource advocates. We
offer advocacy, support and case
management to victims of domestic
violence. All groups and services are
available free of charge.
Our Advocates work with individuals
and families to help support them in
leading a life free of violence by:
• Providing linkages to community resources.
• Assisting in developing long term safety plans.
• Engaging victims in support and counseling
programs.
• Assisting victims in meeting basic needs such as
food, shelter, healthcare and financial sufficiency.
• Providing crisis one-on-one counseling.
For more information about Adult Case
Management services please call
414-276-1911
Advocates also help parents whose children
have been victims of domestic violence or
have witnessed abuse in their home by helping
parents support their children, get the services
and counseling they both need, and teach
them how best to advocate for their children
in various systems.
Safe Mom, Safe Baby
Case management services are tailored to meet
the specific needs of pregnant women who
experience violence during the pregnancy and
up to six months post partum. In addition to case
management services, a community resource
advocate and a nurse case manager work in
partnership to help ensure the pregnant mother’s
safety in the health care setting and that she
receives prenatal care.
Support Groups
Through our Child Witness to Domestic Violence
program, we offer group support and education
to mothers of children who have been victims of
physical or sexual abuse or who have witnessed
domestic violence.
The Parenting Education Enrichment & Resources
(PEER) program offers group programming for
women whose children are involved in the Bureau
of Milwaukee Child Welfare. Women involved in
the initial assessment, safety services or ongoing
case management programs may be eligible to
participate in this group.
Legal Referrals
In collaboration with Legal Action of Wisconsin,
Sojourner Family Peace Center provides legal
referrals for eligible clients for matters such as
restraining orders, child custody and placement,
child support, public benefits and housing issues.
