Mission Statement


The Mission of Sanctuary Center is to provide a “safe space” community center.

We Don’t Judge

Sanctuary Center is a “lifestyle” community-based resource co-op support system whose goal is to provide the environm
ent where those who are lost and desire a need for change and connection.

Through education, community collaboration, and advocacy we are committed to supporting, bringing together, and developing tools that help survivors thrive through community and connection.


Values

We believe it is a basic human right that an individual have the autonomy to find the type and amount of consensual sexual pleasure that is right for them, respecting the spectrum from asexual to omnisexual.

We believe that love is limitless and relationships and commitment come in many healthy forms.


We believe that the term family is defined by an individual’s values and not bloodline.

We believe that no matter your identity or lifestyle, whether, Kinky, GLBTIAQ, or Ally, no one should ever be turned away from help when they are in danger.


We believe that Intimate Partner Violence is a human issue, not a gender one.

We believe that emotional abuse is as deadly and toxic as physical and sexual violence.

We believe that the family court system is designed to perpetuate intimate partner violence via financial and emotional abuse, which does not serve in the best interest or welfare of either party or the children.



We believe that the mental health system is not designed to reduce stigma or provide appropriate access to mental health care on an emergent, urgent, or on going basis.

We believe that if given the proper tools, anyone can turn their tragedy into a triumph.

We do not believe that you can save someone by protecting them. We believe in the empowerment of the individual. Given the tools, we can survive and thrive on our journey. 

We believe the education, guidance, and connection provide the environment for empowering survivors of abuse to thrive.

We believe that diplomacy and collaboration provide a healthier environment for growth than conflict and compromise.

Goals

Our hope is to find and develop affordable mental and health treatment options, tools, and resources those who are unable to access care in other forms.

Our hope is to find and develop affordable legal options, tools, and resources those who are unable to afford or access help in other forms.

Our hope is to move society past tolerance into acceptance of consensual sexuality, gender, and relationship diversity is a healthy, integral part of the human experience.

Our hope to provide guidance, support, and hope to those who have lost their way.

Our hope is to live up to the high standards and values we teach here and influence the next generation to be more ethical than our own.
