OASIS
(Grantee partner since 2008)
Founded in 1978, OASIS, Inc. (Opposing Abuse with Services, Information, and Shelter) is dedicated to ending domestic violence and sexual assault in Watauga County, North Carolina. OASIS works toward this mission in three ways:
- Providing comprehensive emergency services, transitional support, and a safe environment for survivors as they explore options for a violence-free life.
- Providing education and skill development to encourage families in our community to create and maintain healthy peer and intimate partner relationships that are based on respect and equality.
- Helping to create a community that supports survivors through advocacy and education.
OASIS works very closely with the local SART (Sexual Assault Response Team) and DART (Domestic Assault Response Team), facilitating monthly meetings with community collaborators from law enforcement, hospitals, Appalachian State University and other helping agencies to provide comprehensive and compassionate care to victims of sexual assault and domestic violence.
