Domestic Violence

How We Help

The PTN’s DV Program assists Native American clients in identifying a safe living environment and provides survivor support. Services may vary by location, but help is given to all.

The Domestic Violence Program provides crisis services for victims of sexual assault, stalking, human trafficking, elder abuse, dating violence, domestic violence, and trauma.

The staff holds several outreach activities for community members about issues surrounding domestic violence. We exchange ideas on how to increase awareness of domestic violence and its devastating effects in the communities we serve.

We also are involved with the Community Response Teams in several Ponca Tribal service areas. Members meet monthly to discuss effective and accountable services for perpetrators and enhanced support for victims.
