The Battered Women’s Shelter of Summit and Medina Counties serves families affected by violence – women, men, and children who are in danger of physical, emotional, and sexual abuse. The shelter provides emergency services and supportive services to victims seeking to end family violence.

St. Paul’s Episcopal Church supports BWS with a regular monthly ingathering of supplies needed at the shelter. For information about the shelter, leave a message at the Church Office at 330-725-4131 for liaisons Tina Hanlon or Roberta Burnett or visit the BWS website at hopeandhealingresources.org.
