So often when we consider the negative implications of intimate partner violence, we think of how it emotionally and physically affects the abused. However, the children who witness abuse and grow up in an atmosphere of violence endure harsh repercussions as well.
Join PADV’s Women In Action Forum as we share what domestic violence is like, through a child’s eyes. This breakfast will include thought-provoking dialogue, prize giveaways and a women’s marketplace
- Volunteers will be asked to work as greeters, registration hosts, sell raffle tickets and assist vendors and guests. Visit: http://www.signupgenius.com/go/10c0c48afab22a13-padv4 to sign up!
FAQs:

Mission Statement
PADV works to end the crime of intimate partner violence and to empower its survivors.
Description
Partnership Against Domestic Violence (formerly the Council on Battered Women) began as a volunteer agency in 1975. The organization became incorporated in 1977. Today the agency has over 40 full and part-time staff with an administrative office in Decatur and two 24-hour emergency shelters in Fulton and Gwinnett Counties.
Volunteer Qualifications
- All volunteers must be 18 years old or older. Due to state regulations, we are not allowed to have minors volunteer or accompany volunteers in the shelters.
- Many PADV volunteers are survivors of intimate partner violence (IPV). However, if you are a survivor of IPV or have experienced a loss due to IPV, we ask that you wait a minimum of 12 months before volunteering as a Direct Service volunteer with PADV.
- In order to maintain continuity of service and effective communication, we prefer that shelter volunteers sign up for an average of a minimum of four hours per month.
- Volunteering opportunities at PADV are NOT available for those who are looking to fulfill court-ordered community service requirements.
