We embrace and collaborate with concerned citizens to prevent domestic abuse BEFORE it starts and to interrupt the cycle BEFORE harm occurs.

We believe people are the solution to ending domestic abuse and datingvi olence.

The success of our Community Engagement work depends on the voices, ideas, and actions of everyday citizens. To this end, we invite you to join our "prevention pipeline" network.

Faces of Hope

Many of the news media coverage and stories heard about domestic abuse are those that end in tragedy. These stories have value in driving home how detrimental domestic abuse really is, however they do not share the stories of hope. FACES OF HOPE are the stories of survivors and everyday people who are inspiring positive change and prevention. Are you a Face of Hope? If so, CLICK HERE to share your story.
