In August 2014, DAIS opened the doors to our new home at 2102 Fordem Avenue - a dream many years in the making. This new home represented many new changes for DAIS - not only did it expand the shelter capacity from 25 beds to 56, it also provided more space for DAIS programming. This facility also marked a new era for DAIS, with the organization moving from a confidential location to a very public one on Madison's north side. The change from a confidential location to a public one was a decision that was made in light of national trends for domestic violence shelters.
DAIS was proud to stand with local leaders this afternoon to introduce a roadmap to reducing violence in our community. Our own Faye Zemel spoke to why we are so excited about this effort. Full press conference is linked below. If you would like to go straight to Faye, skip to about 10:45!https://...
“Violence is extremely pervasive in Dane County, and much of it, such as domestic violence, child abuse and neglect, and sexual assault, continues to fly under the radar,” said Faye Zemel, director of prevention and systems advocacy for Domestic Abuse Intervention Services, or DAIS.
