AWAZ: Voices Against Violence

Our Voices Against Violence (AWAZ) program empowers survivors of violence

Violence Prevention Resources

We address issues of violence – including domestic violence, sexual assault, child abuse, child sexual abuse, digital abuse, stalking, human trafficking, and elder abuse – within the community through free and confidential services, outreach, education, case management, and advocacy. Recognizing and reaching out for assistance as a survivor of abuse can be very difficult, and SAN would like to encourage any and all survivors to allow us to be a safe space in helping navigate a sensitive situation.

Services:

  • Safety planning for survivors and their children
  • Case management and advocacy including shelter placement, court accompaniment, application for public benefits, etc.
  • Counseling and emotional support for survivors and anyone facing second hand trauma
  • Access to legal assistance in the areas of family and immigration law
  • Workshops (Mental Health, Healing, Financial Literacy, Parenting)
  • Various support groups
  • Legal document translation

Today we commemorate the emancipation of African A Today we commemorate the emancipation of African American slaves across the United States. The celebration began in 1865 in Texas and is now recognized as a federal holiday. We must take this opportunity to recognize the Black activists that paved the way for other communities of color in this country. SAN stands strong in solidarity during this continuous fight against inequality and the racism that still pollutes our society today.
