PDC Orenda Center Marks First Full Year in Former Marshfield Transitional Shelter

Saturday, February 1st, 2020 -- 8:11 AM

(Hub City Times) -The Personal Development Center/Orenda Center (PDC) marked their first full calendar year in the former Frederick Ozanam Transitional Shelter, with the closing of 2019.

PDC provides services for victims and survivors of domestic abuse and sexual assault. But as a non-residential program, PDC had always been faced with the challenge of ensuring immediate and short-term shelter while legal and long-term housing options could be explored, and the former transitional shelter facility allows for enhanced and expanded programs and services, which includes safe temporary housing for victims. During 2019, the shelter provided 3,650 nights of shelter to victims and their children. The shelter is used as a safe haven in a temporary setting, until victims are able to locate to a more permanent, safe setting.

The shelter opened to the public in Sept. 24, 2018. PDC will host their signature fundraiser on Feb. 13. The event features a family-style dinner, entertainment, and live and silent auctions. The event will take place on Feb. 13, 5:30-9:30 p.m., at RiverEdge Golf Course south of Marshfield. For more information, call 715-384-2971.
