I think the obvious answer is your local abused women's shelter.

Check with your local Community Action Agency. CAA's administrate over 90% of all Community Block Grants in the US, and often have MANY different programs available, or they are in contact with others that offer services. They should be able to help you find a match for your talents, and goals.

Helping woman and children with what? Learning to read? Volunteer at the library. How to get away from an abusive spouse? Volunteer at your local woman's shelter. How to get off welfare? Volunteer at the welfare office.

Child abuse, domestic violence agencies, homeless shelters and your local police are all good starts. See if your college offers internships....Good luck
