Refuge House is led by a Board of Directors who determines the strategic direction of the agency and provides oversight to the executive director. The executive director is responsible for the operations and programs of the agency, and the functions of the administrative, fiscal and program teams.
Program services are led by a team of program directors and managers, who supervise direct service and community education staff members. Refuge House programs operate on a 24-hour basis: our Leon County Emergency Shelter, our Taylor County Emergency Shelter and our 24/7 Crisis Hotline. Our entire staff team of over 35 people are passionate advocates dedicated to the needs of survivors and our community.
