About WomenspaceOur mission is to end domestic violence by empowering adults & their children & changing community standards. We believe that each person has the right to lead a life free from violence and fear of abuse. All people have the desire and capacity to control their own lives. Domestic violence can be emotional, physical, sexual or economic abuse. It is the most common and least reported crime in our country. Every 9 seconds in the United States, a woman is battered by her husband, boyfriend or live-in partner. Battering crosses all economic, cultural, racial and religious lines. This epidemic of violence can touch any of us. It will take all of us to make each of us safe. Womenspace is funded by private donations, government and foundation grants and the United Way of Lane County. We offer the following services:
