HUGS II logo |
H.U.G.S. (Help Us Get Safe) is a multi-faceted, non-profit organization that educates communities about domestic violence while assisting victims and their families. The first HUGS chapter was created by Officer Cunningham of the East Bridgewater Police Department in 1996.
In 1998, we began a chapter in Easton, called HUGS II, to offer the residents of our community the same opportunities and assistance the program has brought to numerous families in the East Bridgewater area. The executive board members, Easton's Family Violence Task Force, as well as countless volunteer members, are responsible for taking a stand against domestic violence by bringing HUGS to our community .
Individuals caught in an abusive relationship face overwhelming difficulties and must overcome tremendous obstacles to leave the situation. HUGS helps victims of domestic violence leave abusive environments and gives them the means to survive outside the relationship. HUGS offers many services such as transportation, child care, safe housing, personal care items, and more. To find out ways that you can help, please visit our What You Can Do page.
