Education & Outreach

Education is the key to how we grow as individuals and how we flourish as a community. At the Family Crisis Center, we strive to educate the community about the struggles that women, children and men experience when they fall victim to family violence and/or sexual assault. We have advocates available 24 hours a day for personal support and many more who take their advocacy to college campuses, hospitals and community events to promote the need for social change and awareness of such crises.
