Description

It was my great honor to speak with Maria Macaluso this time. 
In January 1998, Maria joined the Women’s Center of Montgomery County, PA as the executive director. The Women’s Center is a domestic violence service. 
Since 1976, the Women's Center has been a volunteer, community organization whose mission is: Freedom from Domestic Violence and other forms of abuse.

Serving approximately 5,000 unique individuals every year, the Women's Center offers critical services that positively impact those affected by abuse.
The list of services includes:
• A 24-hour toll-free Hotline: 1-800-773-2424
• Assistance with filing Protection from Abuse Orders onsite at courthouse
• Court accompaniment to Protection from Abuse Orders (PFAs), in the district court,
and at preliminary hearings
• Legal advocacy and options counseling. And a lot more…

Maria and the Women’s Center of Montgomery County are proud (and so appreciative) of the 185 volunteers who tirelessly donate their time and talent to the cause. Their programs, policies and procedures reflect a strong commitment to empowering women.
