Since 1977, we have provided counseling, shelter, crisis intervention, education, and community and legal support and advocacy to Franklin County residents facing domestic violence.

How and when did the organization get started?

CHOICES for Victims of Domestic Violence, Inc., formerly Phoenix House, began service to the Central Ohio community in October 1977. CHOICES became one of the first programs in Ohio to address the immediate and long-term needs of battered or abused women and their children. Today, CHOICES has developed from a shelter facility into a program that offers many services to victims, including a 24-hour crisis hotline, counseling services and legal advocates.
