The Mary Parrish Center (MPC) is a unique non-residential program that provides access to an array of services for domestic/sexual violence victims and their children. Our open door policy and holistic approach allows us to serve all victims in need, including those who have been unable to find assistance anywhere else in the community.

After the milk and cookies, the hard work begins: a lengthy questionnaire and a session where the staff ask, "What do you need?" You name it, and the center tries to find it... It's a "whatever it takes" operation.

The mission of The Mary Parrish Center For Victims of Domestic and Sexual Violence (MPC) is to provide streamlined access to services that promote the safety, self-sufficiency and well being of domestic and sexual violence survivors and their children by fostering a structured collaborative community response in one central location.
