PEACE Program

Emergency Help

You're Not Alone. We are Here to Help.
We offer round-the-clock support and safe shelter for those in need of urgent assistance.

Everything you share with us is confidential. We will not share your information without your permission — unless someone is in immediate danger. We’re happy to answer any questions you may have about what confidentiality looks like in practice.

Crisis Support & 24/7 Hotline

Support When You Need It Most

Sometimes moments of fear or crisis come without warning — and when they do, we’re here. The PEACE Program offers around-the-clock support to anyone in our community who is experiencing domestic violence, sexual assault, stalking, elder abuse, or human trafficking.

Whether you need someone to talk to, support in an emergency, or help figuring out your next step, our trained advocates are available 24/7 to listen and help — without judgment, pressure, or expectation.

What you can expect:

  • A compassionate, confidential conversation

  • Safety-focused support

  • Help accessing immediate resources

  • Someone to talk to — anytime, day or night

📞 Crisis Line (24/7): 402-801-0230
📱 Work Cell: 785-850-6596
📍 Serving: Doniphan, Brown, Holt, and Richardson Counties

You are not alone. You are heard. You are supported.

Safe Spaces & Shelter Support

A Place to Feel Safe, Supported, and Seen

Leaving an unsafe situation can be scary — but you don’t have to do it alone. The PEACE Program can help connect you with confidential, culturally informed shelter and safe housing options in and around our tribal communities.

Whether you’re planning ahead or need to leave quickly, we’ll help you build a safety plan and find a safe space that meets your needs.

We can help with:

  • Emergency shelter access

  • Transitional or longer-term housing referrals

  • Safety planning and transportation coordination

  • Support for families, elders, children, and pets

We honor your courage and walk with you at your pace. Safety looks different for everyone — we’ll work together to find what’s right for you.

If you’re in need of shelter or just want to explore your options, contact us anytime to talk through your needs. Your safety matters.
