Family Violence Project...
We want to create a community – and live in a world -- where people treat each other with respect and have no tolerance for violence.
And...
We want to promote safety for victims of abuse, hold abusers accountable, and create the social change necessary to end abuse.
So. through our education and awareness workshops, we create connections with community members and encourage them to recognize and combat domestic violence.
We sponsor task force meetings in Kennebec and Somerset Counties, inviting interested community members – adults and teens – to interact with law enforcement officials, social service providers, health care professionals, court personnel, and representatives from local and state government.
Our goal is two-fold. We seek to develop and foster awareness and understanding that
- Leads to a coordinated community response intolerant of abuse
- Creates a strong community safety net for individuals and families who want to stop the abuse in their life – and need help to make that happen.
