The Doves Program

The DOVES Program was founded in 1979 to provide support to victims of domestic violence in Scotts Bluff County. Since that time, our program has grown to assist victims of dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking as well. Today, the DOVES Program currently serves nine counties in Nebraska’s Panhandle: Scotts Bluff, Cheyenne, Morrill, Kimball, Banner, Box Butte, Dawes, Sheridan, & Sioux Counties.

Our dedicated staff provide 24 hour assistance, offer immediate, on-going and long-term support, and connect individuals to other community resources. In doing so, we are able to help our clients overcome crises and empower them to be the change they want to see in their lives.

At DOVES, we envision:

• A community free of sexual, domestic and dating violence,
• A community that fosters healthy sexuality,
• A community where every person feels safe and expects healthy relationships.
