"An Evening in Spain" is this Saturday, May 21st, 2022 at the Balboa Bay Resort! 

In honor of our 40 years, this night of "Serious Fun" will be celebrating PAST DOVE Award honorees. These ambassadors for social change have dedicated their energy and time towards our mission, and helping to build an Orange County where everyone lives free from violence.

Our Auction OPENS tomorrow!

Don't miss out on some awesome items.

Bidding is open to anyone, you don't have to be in attendance to bid on one of our auction items for yourself or a loved one! 

Your support makes it possible to meet the increased needs of victims and survivors in our community! 

Last week, for #MentalHealthAwaresnessMonth, our Sisterhood group got together to learn about the importance of mental health and its connection to relationship violence from our Clinical and Outreach Supervisor, Claudia Flores, LCSW. They also had the opportunity to gather basic-care items for families in our shelter and residential programs. Learn more and mark your calendars for our August Sisterhood event by clicking here!

Mental health & well-being is a vital part of overall health and during Mental Health Awareness Month, we encourage others to join the national movement to raise awareness, fight stigma, provide support and advocate for policies supporting people navigating mental illness.

Together we can realize a shared vision where families and communities receive quality support and care to live healthy, fulfilling lives.
