When it is a viable option, it is best for you to do what you can to escape your abusers. However, this is not the case in all situations. Abusers repeatedly go to extremes to prevent their victims from leaving. In fact, leaving an abuser is the most dangerous time for a victim of domestic violence. One study found in interviews with men who have killed their wives that either threats of separation by their partner or actual separations were most often the precipitating events that lead to the murder.

The Tribe Circle mitigates this risk by protecting women and children abuse survivors. We have a task force of Volunteers, Counselors and Protection Specialist to keep you safe and support you after a decision has been made to leave an abusive environment. We are here to build a circle of trust and protection around you, this often starts with our Critical Response & Extraction Team and a Counselor to securely extract you from where the abuse is happening, transport you to a safe house location, accompany you to a hospital and court cases.
