In the year of 2009, LOM began to service women fleeing domestic violence with crisis intervention and lodging. LOM was able to place an individual in emergency lodging with the hope of getting them into short-term shelter.
LOM also provided short-term support with utility assistance and rental assistance based on need and finances
