What a meaningful and informative event! 💜 Unite Against Domestic Violence, co-hosted by Zonta and Child & Family Center, brought us together to talk about education, prevention, and awareness—and how we can all help build safer, healthier communities.
At Child & Family Center, we provide support, services, and shelter for people experiencing domestic violence. We also have a department dedicated to prevention and education, offering workshops, classes, and events in our local schools and throughout the community focused on healthy boundaries, relationships, and communication.
These conversations are especially important for our young people. Helping them understand respect, recognize unhealthy behaviors, and feel confident setting boundaries lays the foundation for healthier relationships throughout their lives.
There is no place for violence or abuse of any kind—physical, emotional, verbal, sexual, or financial. Everyone deserves to feel safe, valued, and respected.
Thank you to Zonta and everyone who joined us in keeping these important conversations going. Education and awareness can help prevent abuse before it begins. 💜
💜 As we prepare for Purple Walk on October 10, we`re proud to recognize the sponsors helping drive meaningful change in our community. 💜
A sincere thank you to Advocating Change Sponsors FIT BODY BOOT CAMP and NOLA MED TRANSPORT. Their support helps Child & Family Center continue providing advocacy, resources, and essential services through our Domestic Violence Program for individuals and families impacted by domestic violence.
👟 Every step taken, every dollar raised, and every story shared helps strengthen services that provide safety, support, and hope to survivors.

October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month, and conversations like this matter.
Zonta Club of Santa Clarita Valley and
Child & Family Center are coming together to host an evening focused on awareness, prevention, survivor support, public safety, and the role each of us can play in creating safer communities.
We are especially proud that our own Felicia Skaggs, Division Director of our Domestic Violence and CORE programs will be joining this important panel alongside local leaders and advocates who each bring a different perspective to the conversation.
Domestic violence impacts individuals, families, workplaces, schools, and entire communities. The more we understand the issue, recognize the signs, know where help is available, and talk openly about prevention, the stronger our community becomes.
We are grateful to Zonta for partnering with Child & Family Center to bring people together for this important discussion. 💜
Please join us on October 2 and help us continue the conversation. It’s a free event. Please RSVP here: https://www.zeffy.com/en-US/ticketing/unite-against-domestic-violence
