Providence relies on philanthropy for county's only forensic nursing center
EVERETT — When Zadki Avila was seeking support while experiencing domestic violence, she turned to the Providence Intervention Center for Assault and Abuse.
There, staff members helped her go through the court process and begin therapy.
“Back at that time, I was super scared and scared about my life,” Avila said. “So thanks to that program, they helped me go through that difficult time.”
The Providence Intervention Center for Assault and Abuse began in 1997 as a sexual assault nurse examiner program in the Providence emergency department. Since 2006, the program has been housed in Dawson Place Child Advocacy Center in downtown Everett.
