STAND! is a founding member of the Alliance to End Abuse initiative, a cross-sector organization working to help solve domestic violence, sexual assault, and child abuse. However, we cannot achieve our mission without the help of every individual, every school, every faith community, every neighborhood, and every business.
In an effort to reach – as early as possible – individuals impacted by domestic violence and child abuse, STAND! delivers children’s therapy, childcare, and children’s educational programs to abused children and those affected by domestic violence. STAND! also trains legal and law enforcement personnel, human services professionals, educators and health care providers.
Drawing from the best practices in the field, we address critical community needs by focusing on results and accountability. Through planning and adherence to sound fiscal management principles, we do our best to prevent funding fluctuations from affecting the programs and services we provide to our fragile families. As a key component of our community’s safety net, STAND! is committed to creating and implementing an action plan for strengthening the safety net in Contra Costa County. (The safety net is defined as food, shelter, access to healthcare, and child and family safety.) We strive to exemplify trust and transparency – both internally and within our communities.
Programs offer Immediate Crisis Support Services, Community Based Support Services, Non-Violence Programs, Youth Education Support Services (YESS), and Children’s Counseling Program. STAND! For Families Free of Violence is committed to promoting safe and strong families.
