WomenSV

Women of Silicon Valley

WomenSV serves women and children in our area whose lives have been impacted by domestic violence. WomenSV is committed to helping women find the means to deal more safely and effectively with coercive control and other more subtle forms of abuse and go on to build healthier lives for themselves and their children.

Resources and support include:

• A helpline for survivors to connect them with our domestic violence advocates trained in coercive control
• A website with an online directory of services-legal, financial, counseling, personal safety and relocation, educational, vocational, and reference materials on domestic violence in all its forms
• Support and guidance at every stage of the process, from identifying red flags and signs of abuse, through assembling a team and moving through divorce, and on to recovery and starting a new life
• Establishing a long-term personal relationship with each survivor that lasts for as long as the survivor chooses
