Next Door Solutions to Domestic Violence is a very good organization.They have done many helpful and good things for the community and it's people. I was sent over to the organization through Heald College to gain experience in the field that I am working in and will continue to work in. They have the friendliest staff who know exactly what they are there to do and that is help every single client that walks through the door.When I first came to Next Door Solutions to Domestic Violence to help in the office, I knew nothing about the organization and as time went on I was able to pick up really quick on what the organization does. They provide many services for the community that make a big difference in their lives, as well as their families.I feel that Next Door Solutions to Domestic Violence is heaven sent and I know that all these services can amount to a lot of money, but looking past all cost you can not put a price on a child, mother, father, student or family that is being helped to better themselves, so that they may make a better future not only for themsleves but the people that also surround them. Working at Next Door Solutions to Domestic Violence is such a rewarding job that not all the money in the world can replace what the people at Next Door Solutions to Domestic Violence do. So if you feel like you would like to put your money somewhere where people can put it to good use and really help and make a difference with it, please feel free to donate to Next Door Solutions to Domestic Violence. You and your friends are always welcomed!

Ways to make it better!
  • My experience would have been better if... I have has good experiences with Next Door Solutions to Domestic Violence.
  • If I ran this organization, I would... Make a phone list that could be accessed through the computer along with email information so that the employees are easy to get a hold of. Advertise more and think of different ways to come up with fundraisers.
  • In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are... Having enough knowledgable staff to do all the duties and requirements that it takes to run as a successful organization.

We all know someone, a co-worker, a family member, a neighbor, who is experiencing domestic violence at this time. Next Door gives us a place to ask questions, refer someone for a safe haven, or to find a resource for prevention. NEXT DOOR Solutions for Domestic Violence is such a critical part of our community and we recognize them especially as we move into October, Domestic Violence Awareness month. Without Next Door, many affected by Domestic Violence would have absolutely no where to turn. Please support Next Door in their mission to end Domestic Violence - through your financial support or volunteering of your time. You may also donate items for the Holiday Boutique where hundreds of children and their moms have an opportunity, sometimes the only one they will have at the season, to give a gift to one another - a symbol of their love and commitment through these tough times.

Ways to make it better!
  • My experience would have been better if... I had $10M and would be able to fund additional resources including staff and increase prevention awareness and educational opportunties in the community.
  • In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are... The demand for services is never ending and the financial and people resources are being stretched - always finding creative, practical, and meaningful ways to do more with less.

I have been involved with Next Door solutions for over one year as a volunteer. I have had the pleasure of working with their staff on the Kid's Club program and newsletter. Kid's Club provides free child care for clients while they attend support groups at Next Door. Kid's club provides a safe, fun and educational environment for children and covers new topics each month. Topics like feelings, friendship, communication, self-esteem and many others are covered. I have seen first hand what a positive influence that Next Door solutions has on their clients, clients children and the community.

  • In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are... Fund raising. Next Door provides a large array of services from housing to legal, translation services. They operate on a relatively small budget and are still able to provide amazing levels of service to the community,

Next Door Solutions is a very good orginization in the community, it not only deals with domestic violence it works with other agencys and professional to understand the behavior before it can get started. This orginization has help everyone that come through there doors and has a great continues relationship with the clients after they have left the program. I say job well done and keep up the great work.

Next Door, started in 1974, is the oldest and most comprehensive agency in Santa Clara County dedicated to helping domestic violence victims. Its emergency shelter was the first bilingual shelter in the country. I became involved as a board member 4+ years ago and have been impressed every day since. Programs for kids and teens are outstanding. Multi-lingual victims approaching the court system couldn't get a better advocate and guide.

The Great!
  • If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could... lead the effort to stamp out domestic violence in Santa Clara County today ... and for all time.
Ways to make it better!
  • In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are... reaching more victims with the message that help is a hot-line call away; getting more members of the community aware of the prevalence of domestic violence and the negative ripple effect it has on all of us -- it's not a "private matter" that can be ignored.
