Registered in SAM.gov since 2008, the organization operates as a domestic shelter and Subchapter S Corporation, focusing on comprehensive victim support and transitional housing assistance. The center works primarily in urban regions of Rhode Island, with a particular emphasis on Central Falls and surrounding communities, delivering targeted services to help survivors rebuild their lives and achieve economic independence.

These services include rental assistance, case management, safety planning, financial education, job training, childcare, and housing advocacy, with the goal of assisting a minimum of 7 clients for 6-24 months. Blackstone Valley Advocacy Center collaborates closely with partners like Progreso Latino and the Rhode Island Department of Public Safety, which has provided sub-grants to fund law enforcement advocates and housing support across multiple Rhode Island counties.
