October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month.  Please join us in supporting the survivors living right here in Lenawee County.  You can take a stand by:
  • Believing!  It takes courage and strength to share your personal story.  If someone tells you they have been a victim of abuse, believe them.  Listen to them.  Provide them with resources.
  • Supporting! Wear a purple lapel ribbon.  Pick up a ribbon at the Catherine Cobb Safe House Administration Office or at participating First Federal Bank locations in Lenawee County.
  • Participating! Participate in the Purple Paper Ribbon Campaign. Purple Paper ribbons may be purchased and will be displayed at participating locations in the Adrian area.
  • Volunteering!  Volunteers are always needed.  Volunteers are needed to answer the 24-hour crisis line, perform clerical work, sort and organize donations and supplies, provide child care during groups, provide crafts and activities for children and assist with maintenance.
  • Walking! Join survivors and other supporters at the Walk a Mile Event on October 23rd at noon on Adrian College’s Campus.
  • Donating!  Donations of food, linens, towels, personal hygiene products, diapers and wipes, adult and children’s P.J’s, socks, underwear, and cleaning products are always needed.  Please call the administrative office for drop off information.
  • Giving!  Join others in Lenawee County and show your support by Taking a Stand and donating to our Raise the Roof Campaign.  All the funds raised will be used to support the daily costs of maintaining a safe and secure place for survivors to turn to when they are in need.   Our grants do not cover these costs, it is imperative that these funds be raised in our community.  Five local churches have pledged their support in over $5,000 to be used as a match towards donations received from the community!  Please do your part to help us raise another $5,000 or more to support the survivors of Lenawee County!  All donations, big or small, really do help make a difference in the lives of over 400 adults and children each year!  You can donate online through our Go Fund Me Page at https://www.gofundme.com/ze5m4-take-a-stand or dropping off or mailing your gift to Catherine Cobb Safe House at 220 N. Main St.,  Adrian, MI 49221.
You can help the Catherine Cobb Safe House through our gift registries at Elder-Beerman and Kohl's. We have a "List" registry with Walmart, too. The shelter always needs household items--check it out!

Help us "Raise the Roof" at the Catherine Cobb Safe House.  We're trying to raise $100,000 to meet the annual costs of running a 38-bed shelter.  We provide emergency shelter, food, legal advocacy, counseling and referral services to over 250 domestic violence and/or sexual assault survivors and their children each year at the shelter.  We need your help urgently to keep the shelter operational.  Think of your home and how much it costs for electricity, heat, water, repairs and maintenance.  Multiply by 8 or 9 times!  That's our need!!  THANK YOU Lenawee County!!
