Willow Domestic Violence Center has provided services for the Greater Rochester community for nearly 40 years. Each year, Willow Center provides services for more than 7,000 people right here in Monroe County and reaches 15,000 more through prevention education programs. 

In 2015, Willow Center changed its name from Alternatives for Battered Women (ABW) to better reflect the breadth of services we provide and the clients we serve.

Willow Center is the only New York State certified domestic violence service provider serving Monroe County, NY. Just over half of our clients are from the City of Rochester and nearly half are from the surrounding suburbs.

Willow Center provides a full-continuum of free and confidential services, without judgement.

Our Mission is to prevent domestic violence and ensure every survivor has access to the services and supports needed along the journey to a safe and empowered life.

Our Vision is a community free from domestic violence, where healthy relationships thrive.
