A shelter for victims of domestic violence reopens in southwest Kansas.

The Crisis Center of Dodge City was forced to close its shelter this summer after an air conditioning unit broke down. While that unit was being repaired, staff also made some other repairs and deep cleaning in the building.

The shelter is the only safe house of its kind in the area. Other crisis centers in Garden City, Liberal and Great Bend helped provide services while the building in Dodge City was closed.

The center's services are available 24 hours a day seven days a week. It can be reached at (620)225-6987
