Abuse Awareness

Joe Torre is best known for his Hall of Fame baseball career, but his most important work began in 2002, when he and his wife, Ali, launched Safe At Home. Inspired by Joe's own experiences growing up in an abusive household, Safe At Home's mission is to end the cycle of domestic violence and abuse through education. Safe at Home's in-school program, Margaret's Place, gives students a safe, trusted space to learn about healthy relationships, access support, and grow with confidence.

Visit Joe Torre Safe at Home to access resources for youth, parents and educators.

YWCA Metro St. Louis provides a variety of essential services for individuals and their families: crisis intervention and housing for survivors of sexual and domestic violence, Head Start and Early Head Start education and services that support families, and programs that build career readiness to cultivate economic empowerment and self-sufficiency.

The Cardinals are partnering with YWCA Metro St. Louis to highlight their 24/7 Crisis Help Line that those facing domestic or sexual violence, trafficking or stalking can call to receive help.
