Lydia’s House

In partnership with its donors and volunteers, Lydia’s House works in faith to end domestic violence by continuing to provide a place of healing and a voice of hope for abused women and their children.

Since its incorporation in 1995, Lydia’s House has provided transitional housing, access to community resources and comprehensive, goal-oriented support services for more than 950 women and children.

Lydia’s House can currently serve 49 women and up to 85 children. It is Missouri’s largest provider of confidentially located, furnished apartments for abused women and their children, and is one of the largest programs of its type in the United States.

44,074 incidents of domestic violence were reported by Missouri law enforcement agencies in 2016.
