STAND FOR FAMILIES FREE OF VIOLENCE

Prevention: stand! Is a catalyst for change on an individual as well as policy level. Stand! Collaborates with partners in our community to increase awareness of domestic violence. Programs address all populations but especially involve, educate, empower, and mobilize youth to create youth-driven activities addressing relationship violence and help young people develop the skills and emotional resilience to maintain healthy peer and dating relationships and engage in positive social behaviors. Stand! Promotes individuals to take actions to reduce violence in their relationship and communities and encourages supporters to become advocates for violence free relationships through a wide range of activities. Stand!'s outreach, public services announcements, and effective training and presentation materials are crucial components of our work in shaping the community response to domestic violence.
