Philosophy

That physical, emotional, sexual, and economic abuse toward another individual is violence. Such violence is damaging and contrary to standards of reasonable behavior in our communities. We consider such violence to be the concern of all members of our society. We believe that victims and abusers should receive the assistance/support of their communities in the changes they choose to make.
