No. If you or someone you know is interested in enrolling in a program at WIYV, call or text our helpline and we will conduct a phone interview. Each interview is completed by a trained peer-to-peer advocate.
The peer-to-peer model creates a culture and environment of immediate support by allowing those impacted by Domestic Violence to speak to a fellow peer who has also known the impact of Domestic Violence. This model creates a bridge over the shame and stigma of Domestic Violence and encourages understanding and compassion.
We serve Sussex County. However, contact us for referrals or additional resources for your location.
No. Pets are not allowed in transitional housing at this time. WIYV does allow licensed service animals on a case-by-case basis. Please speak with an advocate for more information.
We're so happy you're interested in joining our mission! Please fill out the volunteer contact form on the site and an Advocate will get back to you!

This place is and has been a blessing. I have grown so much in so many ways. I am so proud of the growth I have made today. I am a beautiful person inside and out. I am sober, I’m a mother, a friend, and a whole being again. Thank you What is Your Voice!

- Abby
Staying at the Pearl Safe House helped me and enabled me to get back on track… I worked to get my diploma and my truck! I worked so hard for my kids; to have more mommy time together.” “I wouldn’t have made it this far, not with my addiction history, and I’ve worked through my addiction and I’m in recovery. My kids see a big change in mommy. I thank you for everything, I am a whole new person.

- Lindsey
Being at The Pearl Safe House has been something like a new birth. One of the most important things I was taught while at The Pearl was about safe boundaries and healthy relationships.

- Dolly
The Pearl Program is an umbrella of protection, a positive road to travel to find yourself, a safe place to grow, to be empowered and to empower.

- Amanda
This experience gave me independence, confidence, and self-awareness. I’ve learned I cannot live in the past.
