Family Violence Prevention

The Family Violence Prevention Program (FVPP) is designed to prevent violence and foster healthy relationships. The FVPP supports those who are experiencing or have experienced any forms of violence, human trafficking, controlling, or abusive relationships.

Family violence can be any form of abuse, mistreatment, or neglect that a child or adult experiences from a family member or intimate partner.  Abuse and violence often begin in subtle forms before escalating in frequency and intensity – escape the cycle, escape the abuse, reach out for support.

Our Mission

Prevent violence among families and ensure survivors are connected to the necessary services and support.

Our Vision:
