STAND! For Families Free of Violence is a nonprofit serving Contra Costa County to end the multi-generational cycle of violence. We have a 24/7 Crisis Line, Emergency Shelter, Community Support Groups, school-based programs, and more. We serve over 10,000 clients from our community every year who have experienced dynamics of family violence. Our mission is to save lives, rebuild families, and change the future!
We have multiple hands-on projects coming up that will require groups of laborers. We will be pulling and relaying carpeting in our office, we will be prepping and painting walls, and we will be moving and breaking down lots of furniture.
If you are looking for group volunteer opportunities that require physical, active labor - we have some projects for you! Please reach out to me so that we can coordinate a time and project that works best for your group!
***PLEASE NOTE - ONLY INTERESTED IN GROUPS, NO INDIVIDUAL RESPONSES***
We look forward to working together in our mission to end family violence. Thanks for your partnership.

Mission Statement
STAND! For Families Free of Violence is a catalyst for breaking the multi-generational cycle of violence, promoting safe and strong relationships, and rebuilding lives.
Description
STAND! For Families Free of Violence is committed to promoting safe and strong families. Our approach to eliminating family violence is well-rounded and community-wide. In addition to providing a complete spectrum of prevention, intervention, and treatment programs, we also enlist the efforts of local residents, partners, and institutions, all of whom are striving with us to stop domestic violence and child abuse.
STAND! is a founding member of the "Zero Tolerance for Domestic Violence Initiative", a cross-sector organization working for 10 years to help solve domestic violence, sexual assault and children exposed to violence. But we cannot achieve our mission without the help of every individual, every school, every faith community, every neighborhood, and every business.
Whether our volunteers are answering incoming calls to our crisis line, being STAND's representative at speaking events, or fundraising, they are a vital part of STAND!.
