Willow Domestic Violence Center is a small nonprofit based in Lawrence, Kansas, operating in the civic and social sector. Founded in 1976 as WTCS, it was the state's first domestic violence shelter and today focuses on reducing domestic violence and human trafficking through safety services, education, and advocacy. The organization serves victims in Douglas, Franklin, and Jefferson Counties, providing support and resources to those affected in the region. Recent activity includes partnerships aimed at strengthening service delivery, such as a 2023 collaboration with the Family Justice Center Alliance for a strategic planning event. The center has a history of leadership changes, including the appointment of a new president and CEO in 2018 and the addition of a chief operating officer in 2021.
