Because of donations like yours, we were able to help a record number of battered American women and their children escaping domestic violence in 2015: 1,419 in 75 countries.
We were able to help 49 of these families get home safely to the USA and provided 55 legal consultations and retainers to enable battered mothers to gain custody of their children.
The crisis center operated 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days last year staffed by our case managers who provided thousands of hours of safety planning, advocacy, long term case management including connecting clients to counseling, housing, emergency resources and so many other needs.
We know the demand for our services will only increase in 2016. We sincerely appreciate your belief in our mission!
Thank you so very much. The AODVC Staff.
