Our Services

Free and confidential support for survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault — and their families — in Northern Cameron County and all of Willacy County.

How We Help

Help is here. There is no cost. There is no judgment.

The Family Crisis Center, Inc. provides free and confidential services to victims of family violence, and adult and child victims of stranger and non-stranger sexual assault. We serve Northern Cameron County and all of Willacy County.

You don’t need an appointment. You can walk in during office hours, or call our 24-hour hotline any time, day or night. You will be believed, you will be listened to, and you will be supported.

All services are available by appointment or walk-in.

What we offer

24-Hour Crisis Hotline

Speak with a trained advocate any time — day or night, weekends and holidays. Our hotline is free, confidential, and bilingual. We’ll listen, believe you, and help you figure out what to do next.

24-Hour Emergency Shelter

Safe, secure shelter for survivors and their children — available 24 hours a day. A private place to rest, regroup, and plan next steps without fear.

Crisis Intervention

Immediate emotional support and safety planning. Whether you’re considering leaving, just left, or unsure what to do — we’ll meet you where you are, 24 hours a day.

Hospital Accompaniment

Trained advocates accompany survivors of sexual assault to the hospital — 24 hours a day. You don’t have to walk in alone, sit alone, or wait alone.

24-Hour Advocacy

Help navigating the system — police, hospitals, courts, social services. We stand beside you, explain your options, and make sure you’re heard.

Transportation to Safety

If you need to leave a dangerous situation and don’t have a way out, we can help with safe transportation to shelter or another safe place.

Counseling Services

One-on-one counseling and peer support groups for adults and children affected by domestic violence or sexual assault. Healing happens at your own pace.

Legal Advocacy

Support through every step of the legal process — law enforcement interviews, protective orders, and court accompaniment. We help you understand your rights and feel less alone in the room.

Educational & Prevention Programs

We deliver prevention and awareness programs to schools (elementary through college), churches, civic organizations, and professional groups. Our goal is a Rio Grande Valley where this work is no longer needed. Available in English and Spanish.
