ST. LOUIS, Mo., July 29, 2025 – The St. Louis Cardinals are proud to announce a partnership with Joe Torre Safe At Home and YWCA Metro St. Louis to raise awareness about domestic violence and support victims of sexual abuse.
More than 20 years ago, Baseball Hall of Famer Joe Torre and his wife, Ali, founded Safe At Home to end the cycle of violence and abuse through education.
“Growing up in a home where there was domestic violence left lasting scars, and that was what inspired Ali and me to start Safe At Home,” said Joe Torre, co-founder and co-chair, Safe At Home. “The values of positive role modeling, leadership, teamwork, and respect are critically important – at home, in our communities and on the baseball field. Our prevention model starts out in schools so we can reach young people early, reinforce these qualities, and educate to prevent the cycle of violence and abuse. Every child deserves to feel safe, supported, and empowered.”
“The Cardinals are honored to stand alongside Safe At Home and YWCA Metro St. Louis in raising awareness about domestic and sexual violence,” said Michael Hall, Vice President of Community Relations and Executive Director of Cardinals Care. “By sharing resources and creating safe spaces, we hope to make a meaningful impact in the lives of those affected and continue our commitment to supporting the well-being of our community.”
On Wednesday, July 30, Cardinals fans will have the opportunity to connect with representatives from Safe At Home and YWCA at Busch Stadium to learn more about domestic violence prevention and access critical resources and support.
As part of this initiative, the Cardinals and YWCA are also collaborating to post the YWCA’s 24/7 helpline number in all women’s and family restrooms at Busch Stadium, ensuring that help is always within reach for those in need.
YWCA Metro St. Louis provides vital services including crisis intervention and housing for victims of sexual and domestic violence, early childhood education through Head Start and Early Head Start, and career readiness programs to cultivate economic empowerment and self-sufficiency.
