The Women's Center and Family Violence Prevention Center Merge July 1
|
"Zero Birthday Party" for the new
Compass Center for Women and Families!
Board members, staff, and friends from the community met at The Standard on Saturday June 30th to salute the merging of two organizations: Family Violence Prevention Center of Orange County and The Women's Center. With a vision of strengthening our longtime collaboration to better meet the needs of clients, stakeholders from both organizations worked intensively for more than a year to create an organization that will help individuals address immediate crises and teach them how to create longer term success for themselves and their families.
The result? Compass Center for Women and Families. Through crisis response, court advocacy, community education, adolescent empowerment, and career, legal and financial programs, Compass Center for Women and Families helps women, girls and families prevent and end domestic violence and become self-sufficient. We welcome your support for Compass Center for Women and Families. Our new website, www.compassctr.org, is under construction. Please visit The Women's Center's website to make a donation and help us launch the new organization!
