The SAFE Alliance is a Central Texas nonprofit organization working to stop abuse for everyone. SAFE supports children, adults, and families who have experienced abuse by providing safety, stability, and healing. To more effectively put an end to child abuse, sexual assault, domestic violence, and sex trafficking, SAFE provides shelter, counseling, legal assistance, sexual assault forensic exams, supervised visitation and exchange services, and more. In addition to direct services, SAFE works to prevent violence before it occurs through parenting assistance and education, programs that promote healthy teen relationships, and working with communities disproportionately affected by abuse. Violence and abuse are a cycle, often transferred across generations. We work to break that cycle. Central Texans may know our work in its iterations through different names and mergers over the past 50 years we've served survivors of violence and abuse. Today, we are known as SAFE - a national leader in innovative and effective programs that provide a sense of safety, dignity, and hope for survivors of sexual assault, child abuse, sex trafficking, and domestic violence in Central Texas. With an annual budget of more than $20 million, more than 350 employees and thousands of volunteers, SAFE now has prevention and crisis programs operating across multiple campuses and in the schools, hospitals, courts, county and District Attorney’s offices. NEED HELP? SAFEline is a 24-hour confidential hotline for people seeking help with sexual or domestic violence, child abuse, human trafficking, or parenting support and is available by phone at 512.267.SAFE (7233), by text at 737.888.7233, or by online chat at safeaustin.org/chat.

We cordially invite you to our 2025 SAFE Gala: Joie de Vivre. Join us in celebrating the joy that is possible for survivors of abuse and violence when they receive the help they deserve. Last year, we served 6,000 survivors of child abuse, domestic violence, sexual assault and sex trafficking with everything they need to find freedom and restoration. SAFE also provides shelter and housing for approximately 1,000 children and adults every day. Attending this Gala means directly supporting this work. We hope to see you there!

“There was a lot of trust that had been broken, and we had to spend a lot of time rebuilding that trust,” said Holly Bowles, SAFE Alliance’s director of sexual assault victim advocacy. “It took a long time to get to a place where we could recognize that we all…wanted to create a better outcome for survivors.”
