Rural Outreach Services
Our rural outreach program serves a five-county region in southeast South Dakota including:

An advocate will come to your community and assist with emergency shelter, protection orders, medical advocacy, and safety planning; accompany you to court proceedings; and help provide you with local resources and referrals.
You do not have to face this alone.
