We hope to see you soon, and if you see us, please come say hi!

Upcoming Events

Thanksgiving Food Drive- Women's Center Oct- Nov 2025

 Please help us spread some holiday cheer this season by donating items for the Women's Center. Over 90% of their clients live below the federal poverty level, which makes the holidays an especially hard time for them and their families. The holiday season is often a time of emotional and financial stress for many survivors of abuse and human trafficking, which is why their Helping at the Holidays program is so important. It provides hundreds of food boxes and gifts to current and past clients and their families. We will be collecting Donations until November 11th 2025. Donation bin is located in our New Berlin Clinic's waiting area. For more information on this Center visit here: https://twcwaukesha.org/
