Our Organization
Sistercare’s Mission
As a nonprofit, United Way partner agency, Sistercare’s mission is to provide trauma-informed services, to advocate for domestic violence survivors and their children, and to promote prevention of domestic violence through community awareness and training. Sistercare is the only organization that offers specialized shelter and support services for survivors of domestic violence and their children in Fairfield, Kershaw, Lexington, Newberry, and Richland counties.
Our Philosophy of Service
Sistercare’s philosophy is to empower survivors of domestic violence and their children to live free of intimate partner violence; become educated about domestic violence; be able to make informed decisions; take responsibility for themselves and their children; and achieve self-sufficiency. This philosophy is applied by offering survivors of domestic violence and their children a range of supportive, trauma-informed services.
