Mission: a safe place for survivors and offenders of domestic violence, who have no previous relationship, to come together for a dialogue. Survivors can ask questions of an offender they could never ask their own and an offender can perform an act of restitution.
Results: DVSD has helped hundreds of survivors and offenders of domestic violence gain information and life tools needed to lead lives without violence. As a result, their future relationships, and those of their children, will benefit from this new path of nonviolence. The domino effect of each dialogue intervention is immeasurable.
Target demographics: survivors and offenders of domestic violence on their path to healing.
Geographic areas served: NorthWest
Programs: * Intervention programs: 1) provide a safe place for survivors and offenders of domestic violence, who have no previous relationship, to come together for a dialogue.
