In addition to our crisis hotline, which operates 24/7, Center for Safety & Change maintains six office locations throughout
Rockland County:
Center for Safety & Change headquarters, 9 Johnsons Ln., New City
Rockland County District Attorney office
Satellite Sites:
Spring Valley and Haverstraw
Suffern – Special Victims Center on the grounds of Good Samaritan Hospital
All Center for Safety & Change office locations have security systems or safety measures in place.
Services for domestic violence victims are provided both in person and by telephone; domestic violence victims with special circumstances may receive services at other safe locations of their choice (e.g., library, restaurant, religious institution, private home). Services for domestic violence victims who are Hasidic or Orthodox Jewish are provided on the campus of a local college, as well as at Center for Safety & Change office locations.
Center for Safety & Change also maintains a presence at all six domestic violence courts in Rockland County. When those courts are in session, Center for Safety & Change staff can meet with and provide services and information to domestic violence victims. Domestic violence courts are located in the Towns of Clarkstown, Orangetown, and Ramapo and in the Villages of Spring Valley and West Haverstraw; an Integrated Domestic Violence Court (IDV) in New City serves the entire county.
Non-residential domestic violence victims served by Center for Safety & Change are permitted to use our post office box for secure correspondence with our staff. Center for Safety & Change also adheres to all confidentiality requirements and disclosure guidelines.
