“Menswork: the mission of menswork is to help men acknowledge their abusive behaviors and beliefs, identify their use of violence and coercive control, and learn to treat partners and children with respect rather than abuse. This certified batterer education program offers change opportunities for abusive men using the nationally recognized domestic abuse intervention project's duluth model (daip). The goal of the education program is to stop male violence and promote individual responsibility. Supportive housing: this program offers safe, secure and affordable permanent housing and supports for victims and their children as they make the transition from living in an abusive home. Support is offered to assist residents working toward individual goals such as continued education, work training, financial literacy, medical treatment, parenting skills and accessing other needed resources. Community education: we cannot end domestic violence alone. Our community education programs are designed to raise awareness about domestic violence in our communities and educate about the dynamics of domestic abuse and to work with law enforcement, courts, social service agencies and institutions about how to respond to domestic violence appropriately. Our school-based abuse prevention program offers age appropriate presentations for students in pre-school through high school and adult education. Presentations are designed to inform children and youth about domestic violence and healthy relationships, thereby increasing knowledge of available resources, decreasing isolation, and shaping how our youth approach dating relationships.”
