To most people, they are invisible.

A young woman and her infant, left abandoned in a strange city, find themselves suddenly homeless.

A wife and mother of three musters the courage to gather her children and escape the violence within her home.

While we may not see the rising populations of battered and homeless women, they are a tragic part of every community — and more than a statistic. Their circumstances may differ, but their needs are the same–safe harbor from the storm.

DaySpring Villa is one of only two certified shelters for battered and sexually assaulted women and their children in the Tulsa metro area, and the only faith-based certified domestic violence shelter in Oklahoma. More than a shelter, we are dedicated to helping our guests carve out a new path and a new direction in their lives. Through spiritual guidance, advocacy and support, social services and goal-based programs, DaySpring Villa helps women in crisis transform their lives to emerge strong, independent and self-sufficient.

DaySpring Villa provides food, shelter, clothing, transportation and vital life tools for as many as 55 women and children at risk. As a privately funded shelter, our ability to dramatically change lives depends on the volunteer services, financial gifts and in-kind contributions we receive from caring individuals and organizations.
