Get Involved
Celebrate decades of life-saving, life-changing shelter and services.
On November 1, 1976, we opened Florida’s first dedicated domestic violence shelter. We were a small house on Hubbard Street in Jacksonville’s Springfield neighborhood, but we had a big mission: safety for those who were not safe in their own homes.
Over the past 50 years, Hubbard House has grown and evolved into full-service domestic violence center serving nearly five thousand people in our community every year.

Hundreds of civic and community leaders come together at this powerful event where we remember those our community has lost to domestic violence, create awareness of Hubbard House’s resources, and become inspired by the stories of now-safe survivors.
February 27, 2027 | 6 p.m.
Join us as we celebrate 50 years of life-saving work and commit to creating a future free of relationship-based violence. Hubbard House will continue to be the beacon for safety and healing for survivors- help us shine that light!
Spring 2027 Date TBD
This fun, family-friendly event features music, dancing, and over 1,500 people coming together for a beautiful morning. Together, we raise awareness about domestic violence and celebrate the strength of survivors. All abilities are welcome!

In the 1970s, a group of local women came together to address a crisis in our community: domestic violence.
Since that first shelter on Hubbard Street, Hubbard House has become so much more…
Emergency shelter for survivors most at-risk will always be our core mission, but thousands of survivors and children also benefit each year from Hubbard House’s services outside of shelter.
We offer counseling, children’s therapy, court advocacy, housing assistance, a 24-hour crisis hotline, safe custody exchange, support within the child welfare system, professional training, youth education, and so much more.
