Joe Torre Safe At Home Foundation

Joe Torre Safe At Home Foundation Founded by Ali & Joe Torre in 2002 to end the cycle of domestic violence and abuse through education. These rooms are staffed by a master’s-level therapist.

By providing resources and support, our young people are able to cope with their trauma and find hope, healing, and empowerment for their futures. Our model is unique because it provides both clinical intervention and prevention services. At our school locations, we establish a safe room – known as Margaret’s Place, named after Joe Torre’s mother. In this setting, we:

-Have group and individual counseling for young people impacted by violence and abuse.
-Hold workshops for teachers to build a safer school environment.
-Hold workshops for parents to make homes and communities stronger.
-Raise awareness on how to prevent violence.
-Empower young people to become advocates and leaders.

On Martin Luther King Jr. Day, we’re reminded that doing what’s right often starts with everyday choices — showing kindness, speaking up, or reaching out for support.

For young people, having safe, caring spaces makes those choices feel possible. It’s in moments of support and connection that confidence grows and courage begins to build — something we see every day in our on-site school programs.

When things feel overwhelming, helpers are the people who show up with consistency, care, and compassion.

Within our on-site school programs, Margaret’s Place, trusted adults create space for students to talk, process, and feel supported during the school day. And when support is needed beyond school, our online resources are available as tools to help guide the next step.

Looking for the helpers reminds us that support can exist in many places — and that no one should have to navigate hard things alone.

Thank you, Mr. Rogers, for the reminder. 💛

Feeling overwhelmed or just not quite okay? You’re not alone. 💛

Our Safety Planning worksheet is a simple tool for moments when things feel heavy. It helps you think about what grounds you, who supports you, and what you can do when things feel hard.

There’s no right way to use it — just support you can come back to anytime.

The new year often comes with hope, fresh starts, and big expectations. But winter can also bring stress, fatigue, and emotional ups and downs — especially for kids. ❄️

Shorter days, lingering holiday emotions, academic pressure, and changes in routine can all contribute to what’s often called the winter blues.

Our latest blog post explores what this can look like for children and teens, and how consistency, compassion, and connection can help.
