Ending Future Violence Against Women and Children

Next Door Solutions to Domestic Violence

$1,000 enables 18 victims of domestic violence to obtain Temporary Restraining Orders that provides them with a sense of safety.

By helping victims obtain restraining orders, the orders put a batterer’s violence on the record and threaten criminal prosecution if the batterer disobeys the order. Statistically, when a restraining order is implemented, the victim’s risk of lethality drops dramatically.
