Georgia Coalition Against Domestic Violence honors outstanding Atlanta-based domestic violence programs

Take a stand with us.

Home should be a place of love, peace and acceptance. In a home devastated by domestic violence, survivors and their children worry about their safety, security and wellbeing.

Join the Georgia Coalition Against Domestic Violence (GCADV) and the GFWC Atlanta Woman’s Club as we seek to raise awareness for and recognize domestic violence programs in the Atlanta area.

The Stand: A Movement. An Impact. A Legacy Luncheon will be held on Sunday, October 11, 2015 from 1:30-3:30 PM at The Wimbish House and is intended to:

• Recognize outstanding and innovative domestic violence program initiatives by GCADV member organizations.

• Expand innovative domestic violence program initiatives by GCADV member organizations.

• Expand awareness of domestic violence and statewide resources available to survivors and their families.

• Raise funds to enable GCADV to continue the critical work of empowering survivors and the organizations that serve them.
