Changing lives and empowering victims of domestic violence.
Wichita Family Crisis Center is thrilled to announce the completion of our NEW HOPE Capital Campaign! The campaign raised more than 7.2 million to purchase and renovate a new facility, which will open later in 2023.
Domestic violence shatters lives. Last year, Wichita Family Crisis Center provided crucial services for 2,000 survivors in the Wichita area to help them put together the pieces. Domestic violence doesn’t have to be the end of someone’s story.
We provide comprehensive services for victims of domestic violence and sexual exploitation. Our aim is to create safe communities by targeting the issues affecting residents and working to prevent future occurrences. Survivors are never alone.
Together we have the power to stamp out domestic violence, and help restore lives for countless victims across south-central Kansas.
We can’t do it alone. We need you to take action today.

Our next staff spotlight is for one of our shelter advocates Liz!
Here is some more about Liz;
How long have you been with WFCC?
"I have been with WFCC for three years and have explored several positions."
Why have you chosen to work with survivors of domestic violence?
"I have chosen to work with survivors of domestic violence because I felt called to help people navigate the barriers that can be thrown at you when you are leaving a hard situation. This can be with the justice system, housing, recovering/gaining finances, or even just the mental and physical parts you must overcome."
What is something you wish more people knew about domestic violence?
"Domestic violence is not the fault of the victim. It does not always present as physical violence and can have lasting effects on both the victim and their children."
What is one fun fact about yourself?
"One fun fact about me is that I love to craft and DIY many things in my free time."
Thank you for all you do Liz!! ... See MoreSee Less
