About Us

For 42 years, Domestic Abuse Women’s Network (DAWN) has supported, empowered, and sheltered domestic violence survivors and their children in south King County and beyond. In order to stop the cycle of generational abuse, DAWN also offers healthy relationship programming for middle school, high school, and college students. In 2021 despite the pandemic, our life-saving, hope-giving programs provided 23,132 total services to survivors in need. Since 1980, we estimate over 400,000 survivors have found safety and a new violence-free beginning with the help of the resources offered by DAWN.
