Our Mission

To empower the community and those affected by domestic violence and sexual assault to transition to a safe and healthy environment.

prevention

The Purple Door aims to prevent sexual and domestic violence through collaborative intervention, education, and awareness. Our goal is to elevate survivor voices, cultivate allies and advocates in the community, correct harmful language and cultural norms, and inspire future generations to live free from oppressive violence.

All services offered through The Purple Door are FREE and available for youths AND adults.

No appointment is needed for face-to-face crisis intervention and advocacy services for survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault. Please call the 24-hour/7 day-a-week crisis hotline at 361-881-8888 or 1.800.580.4878 (HURT) to speak to an advocate if you or someone you know has been a victim of domestic violence or sexual assault.

PREVENTION

Over the years, The Purple Door has sought to define prevention in terms that incorporate all areas of the most difficult humanitarian work and advocacy: to prevent sexual and domestic violence before it happens using collaborative efforts in intervention, education, and awareness in order to bring power back to the survivor voice, to create active allies and advocates within all levels of the community, to correct harmful language and cultural norms with ourselves and our peers, and to inspire a future generation free from oppressive, power-based violence.
