As we kick off #DomesticViolenceAwarenessMonth today, we’re honored to have collaborated with key changemakers in our community during our annual Press Conference. We’re excited to announce our new partnership with the team from Family Justice Center Alliance for HOPE International! Starting in January 2025, Harbor House will host a Family Justice Center Study Tour as part of our efforts to bring a Family Justice Center to Orange County. This initiative will help survivors of family violence access police, prosecutors, advocates, therapists, civil attorneys, and more—all in one place. By strengthening partnerships and improving collaboration across Orange County, we are working to break down barriers and make it easier for survivors to find hope and rebuild their lives.
