How the WINGS Foundation Makes a Difference


A board-certified radiation oncologist, Rajiv “Raj” Dahiya, MD, is co-founder of Predictive Medical Solutions in Dallas, TX. Outside of work, Dr. Raj Dahiya gives to a number of charitable organizations, including WINGS, which provides aid to victims of domestic violence.

Founded in 1985, WINGS Program, Inc., is a nonprofit organization that works to support those who have had the courage to flee an abusive relationship, providing the tools they need to find independence, safety and self-sufficiency. WINGS maintains an emergency shelter for those fleeing a violent situation, where families may stay for up to three months. There is also transitional and permanent housing, available for up to two years. 

Since the foundation began, over 1,000 individuals have been helped, with almost 75,000 nights of safe shelter provided. WINGS also works closely with hospitals. Its representatives visit emergency rooms to give support to victims and help them understand how to devise a safety plan.

After abuse is addressed, counseling is available for families through the foundation, including children. Among the services are assessing behavior, providing art and play therapy, and teaching them how to build healthy relationships.
