How to Start a Family Justice Center

Family Justice Centers are developing rapidly across the United States and around the world. Survivors want and need wraparound services under one roof. The outcome research is powerful. High risk victims of domestic violence don’t die when they are supported by a dynamic Family Justice Center. While domestic violence homicides have been rising for ten years, they have continued to drop in communities with Family Justice Centers. Is it time for your community to pursue development of a Family Justice Center?

Join Casey Gwinn, the visionary behind the Family Justice Center movement, and Catherine Johnson, the leader of the movement in North Carolina, on Wednesday, May 28th for an overview of the process to create a local Family Justice Center and hear about the exciting work of Centers across the country and around the world. Domestic violence homicides are preventable and Family Justice Centers are leading the way to ending homicides in the US.
