Throughout four decades, we have stood together in support
of survivors of domestic violence.

Thanks to your unwavering commitment, we have continued to grow to meet the rising need for our services.

This year, we have continued to spread our wings.

Together we have:

• Expanded our Hospital Program and Survivor Lifeline
  Program into Chicago, providing lifesaving access to support services for survivors. With a new million-dollar grant from the City of Chicago, WINGS launched services to patients at UI Health who are experiencing domestic violence.

• Won a national award for our Housing Programs, proving WINGS integrated approach and high-quality services are exceptional. By providing long-term housing options after emergency Safe House stays, WINGS provides a path forward. The success rate is remarkable: 100% of Housing Programs graduates do not return to abuse.

• Successfully completed a Traumatic Brain Injury Pilot Program with Northwest Community Hospital. With funding from the Michael Reese Health Trust, WINGS led a coalition of domestic violence agencies and medical experts to utilize lessons learned from the pilot to create an innovative program to provide services to survivors who have experienced a brain injury.

• Honored 13 survivor graduates and their children at our Celebration of Courage, our annual graduation ceremony. Each year, families take the step to the next leg of their journey away from abuse and pain to happiness and freedom.

Thank you to everyone who has given
their time, talent, and treasure this year.

YOUR GENEROSITY POWERS OUR MISSION.

Warm regards,
