HOW TO ENROLL IN SAFE AT HOME

Victims must work with an enrolling agent to apply to Safe at Home. Enrolling agents can be state or local agencies, law enforcement offices, non-profit organizations and any others designated by the secretary of state that provide counseling and shelter services to victims of domestic violence, sexual assault, trafficking or stalking.

Within these organizations are individuals who have received training on the Safe at Home program called enrolling assistants. The enrolling assistant will explain the program’s services, the participant’s responsibilities and determine if the applicant could benefit from participation as part of an overall safety plan. A complete safety plan should be discussed and implemented, with Safe at Home as only one piece of the plan. Safe at Home used alone cannot keep a victim safe!

The enrolling assistant will help the applicant with the completion and filing of the Safe at Home application form with the SaH program coordinator. Once the application is accepted by Safe at Home, the participant will receive a participant card within one week to use as verification to all agencies that he or she is a member of the program.

Below is a list of certified enrolling agents. If you are interested in becoming an enrolling agent, please e-mail safeathome@kssos.org for more information.
