Mission Statement
Alexandra House seeks to empower victims of domestic and sexual violence, and inspire social change, through education, support, and advocacy.
About This Cause
Alexandra House is one of the largest domestic and sexual violence shelters in Minnesota and the only such service provider in Anoka County. While we are located in the cities of Blaine, Andover, and Anoka, we work with survivors throughout the state. Our services include 24-hour emergency shelter, 24-hour helpline, legal advocacy, criminal justice intervention, hospital support and advocacy, support groups, housing and supportive services, food shelf, youth violence prevention and intervention program, and community and professional education. Alexandra House’s unique network of services relies upon strong collaborative partnerships with local schools, law enforcement, hospitals, local government, and businesses. We work together to reach and support families in a multitude of ways. These partnerships enable us to better and more holistically address the many barriers survivors of domestic and sexual violence face every day. Nationwide, one in three women will experience domestic violence during her lifetime. National and local studies show that one in five high school girls will be physically or sexually assaulted before she graduates. 35% of law enforcement calls are domestic disputes. This is a local problem. This is a societal problem. To address the need, we focus our programming on three critical areas: prevention, crisis intervention, and sustainability of a violence-free life.
