Our Mission & About Us

The mission of KI BOIS Community Action Domestic Violence Program is to end domestic violence and sexual assault through emergency shelter services, education, advocacy, & prevention programs which empower men, women, and their children to live free of fear and harm within their own families and the community.

​

The KI BOIS Community Action Domestic Violence Program has two locations in Stigler and McAlester, Oklahoma. Our program has been helping to combat domestic violence and sexual assault since 1992 when the shelter operated with just two staff members. The most recent data places Oklahoma 1st in the nation for domestic violence related deaths per capita. Nation-wide statistics estimate that 1 in 4 women will be victims of domestic violence and sexual assault at least once in their lives. Rural women are at an increased risk and Native American women experience intimate partner violence at double the normal rate. The staff and supporters of our program are working hard to end this plague and ensure safety for all families through prevention, education, and support within our communities.
