Blames the victim, questions her mental stability, lacks professional staff, absolves steroid induced psychotics from domestic violence and anger management classes, enables the violent offender to further persecute the victim. The organization's name change from the Women's Center to Live Violence Free by becoming a murder statistic is a SHAME!
I am a new donor and do not have a lot of experience or a lot of specific understanding of the organization. i know that they started in the 70's in the Lake Tahoe California area and now they also have an office and out reach center in Gardnerville, Nevada where i live. Their main work is to help kids and families. Since i do not have a lot of experience i will not be very specific. i like the organization because it helps kids and famlies who have problems. The world we live in today with drugs and alcohol seemingly available one way or another to kids and in families creates many problems which lead to many personal problems in families and their children. Life is hard enough without these problems. The outreach center in Gardnerville, Nevada is where kids can to to enjoy themselves after school, do some homework and discuss their problems if they feel like it. The charity also has mentoring programs at Lake Tahoe and in Alpine County. In this day and age, i would think that mentoring couild be very important help for children with problems.
