Domestic Violence/Abuse
Domestic violence is best understood as a pattern of abusive behaviors including physical, sexual, and emotional attacks – in addition to economic coercion – where one relationship partner gains power and control over another. Survivors of domestic violence often find themselves in confusing legal proceedings and complicated social service systems. CCS Domestic Violence Victim Advocates help survivors navigate these systems and make informed decisions. Domestic Violence Victim Advocates provide information, support, and referrals to other resources. Our vision is for all people to live full, free, expressive and empowered lives in a safe, vibrant, healthy and peaceful community.
