COUNSELING
We offer the Batterers Intervention Program at our Woodward, Oklahoma location. This is a 52 week education group for men located in our area. Most of the people in the Batterers Intervention Program are court ordered, DHS ordered, or suggested to attend by their attorney. We also except anyone that voluntarily wants to come in for this service. The cost for the Batterers Intervention Program is a one time $150 assessment and Domestic Violence Inventory fee, then $25 a week for the remaining 52 weeks.
The 52 week course is aimed at helping abusive men overcome their past and learn the tools and skills to keep themselves and their victims safe. Although we do not offer a women’s group at this time due to being in a rural location if you are court ordered please give us a call and we will help you find the closest program to you.

WOODWARD, OK
Along with assisting survivors of abuse, NWDCS is also dedicated to helping put an end to homelessness. With our Rapid Re-Housing and Prevention Program, we are able to put forth a solid effort toward ending homelessness. This program does have eligibility requirements.
Rapid Re-Housing -
Through grant funding, the re-housing program allows us to help an individual, who meets the criteria for 'Literally Homelessness', obtain more permanent housing. Through this funding we can help with a portion of the initial costs to moving into a new home.
Prevention -
Prevention is the notion of helping a family to catch up on overdue rent, and/or utility bills, to keep them from becoming homeless. Many families fall on hardship once in a while, we want to try and help.
...WHEN IT HURTS, WE CAN HELP
Working through the trauma. Counseling services are available to all of the clients served by the Northwest Domestic Crisis Services. This is an extremely difficult time in your life and if you need someone to help you work through that trauma we are here for you. We offer counseling from our Woodward Oklahoma location, but can assist anyone in our area. We offer counseling services to help with the trauma of being a domestic assault victim, a sexual assault victim, or even a family member that has experienced trauma from witnessing these situations.
If you are needing a specific counseling approach or specialized counseling that we do not offer, give us a call and we will refer you to the place that can help you. We want to make sure the people in our community have the help they need.
