Family Violence Project Story
Family violence places enormous stress on families and, left unchecked, often creates a ripple effect that can be carried forward by future generations. Family violence can affect all aspects of a person's well being and typically leaves its victims filled with fear, confusion and self doubt. The cycle of family violence needs to be stopped and stopped in a way that makes sense for the victims.
The fundamental principle of this Family Violence Project model is that at a time of stress and fear, people are able to make better decisions for their families if they don't also have to use their limited emotional, physical and financial resources to navigate a maze of services.
