About Oasis - a haven for women and children
Oasis - A Haven For Women And Children is a nonprofit 501 (C) (3) organization located in Paterson, New Jersey. The organization was founded with the aim of providing a safe haven for women and children who are victims of domestic violence, poverty, and homelessness. Oasis has been in operation for over 25 years and has helped thousands of women and children to rebuild their lives.
At Oasis, we believe that every woman and child deserves a chance to live a life free from violence, poverty, and homelessness. We provide comprehensive services that include education, social services, health care referrals, legal assistance, job training programs as well as emergency shelter.
Our educational programs are designed to help women acquire the skills they need to become self-sufficient. We offer classes in basic literacy skills such as reading and writing as well as computer literacy classes that teach essential computer skills such as word processing and internet navigation.
In addition to our educational programs, we also offer social services that include counseling sessions for both adults and children who have experienced trauma due to domestic violence or other forms of abuse. Our counselors work closely with clients to help them overcome their emotional challenges so they can move forward with their lives.
We also provide health care referrals for clients who need medical attention but cannot afford it. Our staff works closely with local hospitals and clinics to ensure our clients receive the best possible care.
Legal assistance is another service we offer at Oasis. We understand that many of our clients face legal challenges related to domestic violence or immigration status. Our legal team provides free legal advice on these issues so our clients can make informed decisions about their future.
Job training programs are an essential part of what we do at Oasis because we believe that employment is key to breaking the cycle of poverty. We offer job readiness classes where women learn how to write resumes, prepare for interviews as well as gain valuable workplace skills such as time management and teamwork.
Finally, emergency shelter is available at Oasis for those who need it most. Our shelter provides a safe place where women can escape from abusive situations while receiving support from trained professionals who understand what they are going through.
