Overview

Mission

Safety, empowerment, and social change for victims of domestic violence and their families. To that end we offer a full compendium of services for victims of domestic violence.

What it reported doing in 2024

Outreachsurvivors experiencing domestic violence and not necessarily in need of shelter can visit hubbard house's outreach center. The center takes walk-ins and in-person or virtual appointments. Through all of its outreach initiatives, hubbard house's empowerment model and trauma-informed care drives our work. Last fiscal year, hubbard house served 4,741 survivors and their families through outreach programs and provided 15,398 counseling hours.through the outreach center and outreach initiatives, survivors and their children receive individual and group counseling, safety planning, case management, crisis intervention, referrals, court advocacy, injunction for protection attorneys, and job and housing help. Advocates are embedded at the outreach center, the department of children and families, in baker county, and the duval county courthouse. Hubbard house victim advocates located at the duval county courthouse provide victims of domestic violence with assistance in navigating the civil and criminal process, safety planning, and other advocacy services. The ifp attorneys represent victims of domestic violence in obtaining injunctions for protection. In addition to survivor advocacy, key outreach programs include invest, hark, wave, and the jacksonville safety first project. Invest is an award-winning, nationally recognized partnership between the jacksonville sheriff's office and hubbard house, assessing the most lethal domestic violence cases and providing outreach and services to survivors. Hark (healthy and resilient kids) is an intervention and prevention program that focuses on children aged 4-17 who have experienced domestic violence in their homes. In the program, children are placed in age-appropriate groups and participate in activities designed to educate about the dynamics of domestic violence and how to deal with emotions. Through the wave program, hubbard house works in the schools, providing age-appropriate prevention curriculum designed to teach about healthy relationships. The jacksonville safety first project is a multidisciplinary community collaboration that sustains and strengthens the coordination of the judicial and community response to visitation and custody cases. In all of hubbard house's outreach programs, we advocate on behalf of survivors, seeking to reduce the barriers they face, and to advocate for social change within our community."
