Childcare
DVIS provides childcare services at our counseling offices, the Family Safety Center and our two-star DHS-licensed facility at our emergency shelter. We know that seeking help is hard and that having help, such as childcare, can make caring for yourself a bit easier. Our childcare team uses a trauma-informed approach to work with the many children that need our support while parents are meeting with advocates or counselors. This service is free of charge.
