About Us
We strengthen and safeguard the families of Wexford and Missaukee
counties.
Cadillac Area OASIS/Family Resource
Center
is committed to using an empowerment-based philosophy in its approach
to ending domestic violence. To this end, the self determination
and empowerment of survivors is to be promoted with each individual
given respect and encouraged to take control over her individual
life.
Domestic violence has been tolerated for too long in our society.
The act or threat of violence is not an acceptable means of resolving
any personal conflict. Domestic violence is damaging to those individuals
directly involved and to society as a whole. It is criminal conduct
that cannot be tolerated. Prevention through education, advocacy
an appropriate intervention is the ultimate goal. All survivors should
be provided safety and must be treated with dignity and respect.
The agency shall provide a safe, violence-free environment for survivors
and their children. It shall promote a caring, non-judgmental environment
in which all those seeking services can work toward self-identified
goals. Survivors will have an opportunity to grown in areas of self-confidence,
self-understanding, parenting, problem resolution an communication.
Cadillac Area OASIS/Family Resource Center is committed to employing interventions
that do not blame the victim, and hold the abuser accountable for
their actions. To acheive this on a societal level, this agency is
committed to working with other community agencies to advocate for
and empower survivors.
