Although ASPEN receives funding from state and local sources, the funding provided does not cover all of the need and demand for services from individuals and families in crisis. ASPEN depends upon the support of the community to help sustain its programs for victims/survivors of domestic and sexual violence and their children. The combined generosity of businesses, faith communities, private foundations, groups and individuals helps us provide the necessary assistance to break the cycle of violence. All donations are tax-deductible.
