Family Justice Center Alliance
New Projects with the Verizon Foundation
The Alliance Team with Rose Kirk and Lupita Reyes of the Verizon Foundation
Thank you to the Verizon Foundation for allowing the Family Justice Center Alliance to continue its nationwide work to support existing and developing Family Justice Centers and facilitating partnerships with other key Verizon Foundation partners in the struggle to reduce and prevent domestic violence. The Verizon Foundation has funded the FJC Institute Program of the Alliance since 2007. The 2011 FJC Institute grant includes three key focus areas:
Outreach and Engagement Efforts with Teens Outreach and Engagement Efforts with Men “Change the Ending” of Telling Amy’s Story
The three strategic focus areas for the FJC Institute, described above, are being blended into core service delivery and outreach components of the Institute developed by the Verizon Foundation and the Alliance over the last three years. Each initiative will be piloted in a Family Justice Center and will then be replicated in Family Justice Centers throughout the nation.
