Domestic Violence

---

For the past three years, CCFS has provided Domestic Violence Services to the residents of Los Angeles County. CCFS operates a 24 hr hotline that receives an average of 220 crisis calls annually. 285 clients obtained services from our Domestic Violence Program over the past two years.

CCFS clients are referred by key partners such as hospitals, case managers, probation officers, 211, and the Health and Human Services (HHS) Department of Mental Health. Walk-ins are welcome and no one is turned away for services.

CCFS provides crisis intervention, individualized case management, needs assessment, safety planning, and psycho-education to adults and children survivors. CCFS utilizes community partners who offer domestic violence counseling (individual and group sessions) that assist victims and their children plan for a future free from violence.

CCFS provides weekly support groups to support domestic violence survivors in self-sufficiency, empowerment activities, parenting classes, healthy relationships, and a variety of children's groups. All counseling is offered in English and Spanish languages.

Housing is currently the highest need in our area since we lack local shelters, low-income housing, and other housing services.  Most of CCFS domestic violence clients are in need of safe housing and additional assistance to help them along the way.
