Who We Are

Dedicated to cultivating a society free from abuse, the Center Against Domestic Violence drives cultural change through education and intervention. Our groundbreaking programs for high school, middle school and elementary school students teach young people how to identify and avoid domestic violence so they can develop healthy relationships. The individualized services provided by our shelters strive to give residents the tools they need to break the pattern of domestic violence and start life anew.
