The mission of the Bay Area Women’s Center is to eliminate domestic violence and sexual assault. This will be accomplished through:
Domestic Violence is rooted in an antiquated, sexist social structure that produces profound inequities in the distribution of power and resources, in the roles and relationships between men, women, and children in families, and has devastating effects on victims, their children, and the entire society. It is criminal conduct that cannot be tolerated. A comprehensive community response to domestic violence through education, advocacy, and appropriate intervention is necessary to bring about change and end the violence. Battering stops only when assailants are held accountable for their abuse.
The philosophy of the Bay Area Women’s Center maintains the right of every person to live free of fear, as an autonomous individual. To this end, Bay Area Women’s Center provides excellent, unduplicated services, free of charge, that address the unique needs of victims of domestic violence and sexual assault. Programs and services provide support, advocacy, education, and prevention and give safety, dignity, and respect to victims. Programs and services will hold the abuser accountable for the violence, will support systems change, and will not blame the victim.
