Find Immediate Safety
Emergency Shelter for Individuals, Families, and Youth
Oftentimes, family violence forces victim-survivors to flee their home. You can find immediate safety through our emergency shelters and safe, supportive housing programs. Synergy Services provides an array of emergency shelter services for children, youth, individuals and families. This includes Synergy House our youth emergency shelter (12-18) and the Domestic Violence Shelter for individuals and families escaping domestic violence.

Synergy House
Serving youth ages 12-17
Synergy House is an emergency youth shelter in Kansas City serving youth ages 12-17 experiencing crisis due to abuse, neglect, running away from home, abandonment, and homelessness.
Synergy House surrounds youth within our community with care and support as they navigate challenges. Many times, youth and teens are connected to Synergy House through services and work from our Street Outreach Team.

The Robin Winner Domestic Violence Center supports victim-survivors of domestic violence as they heal.

More than 300 victim-survivors find safety and healing within our shelter each year. Everyone deserves relationships free of domestic violence. When you are ready, we are here to listen.
Our team approach connects every client with a case manager, therapist, and advocate to determine what the individualized next steps are. Through weekly meetings, the treatment team works together to support each individual and family’s evolving needs for individualized treatment, care, and support.
