The Center Against Domestic Violence is dedicated to preventing violence within the family and to promoting the well-being and economic independence of women and children, by providing safe shelters, a network of supportive services, advocacy, education and resource information services and building coalitions. The Center is based in Brooklyn, N.Y. and provides services in the New York City Metro area. The Center Against Domestic Violence is formerly known as the Center for Elimination of Violence in the Family, Inc. The Center Against Domestic Violence, the first publicly funded domestic violence shelter in New York State, was founded in 1977 by a group of pioneering women who understood that domestic abuse was not merely a family matter but a crime, and a violation of human rights. Through innovative programs offered with dedication and respect, the Center works to fulfill its vision of a world free of relationship abuse and violence. == Shelter == The Center operates three shelters, Women’s Survival Space, Women’s Safe Start, and Women’s Second Start. The shelters provide a safe place for survivors and their children, and offer services to assist them as they work through the trauma of domestic violence. The Center provides housing, support and a chance to build a life free of abuse for more than 1,000 women and children each year. Some of services include: * Counseling * Case Management * Workshops and Support Groups * Housing Search Assistance * Daycare * Recreation, Educational and After School Activities 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Center Against Domestic Violence」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
