AWARE Inc. in Jackson is one of 44 domestic violence shelters to receive a one-time grant in the amount of $10,000 from DTE Energy Foundation.
During National Domestic Violence Awareness Month in October, DTE Energy announced their intention to provide grants to state-approved domestic violence shelters across Michigan.
The grant is in support of emergency shelter services and necessary training for the organization to ensure future viability. On average, AWARE provides services to over 3,000 survivors, potential victims, and their children every year. Potential services may include 24-hour crisis and referral services, temporary shelter, housing advocacy, counseling support, public awareness and community education, legal advocacy, and supervised visitation and safe exchange services.
AWARE’s mission is to eliminate domestic and sexual violence while promoting social change and empowering survivors by offering free shelter and services. AWARE is a 501 (c) 3 nonprofit organization and a United Way partner.
