NVS Community Programs
Coffee Klatch: The Coffee Klatch Domestic Violence (DV) support group was developed with the intention of providing a safe haven of open conversation about DV crimes committed against you or a loved one and looking at each person’s individual grief journey in a safe and supportive environment. We will come together and share similar themes that survivors experience such as isolation, fear, stressed relationships and other complications that follow criminal events towards you and your loved ones. This is an opportunity for you to meet other people that have shared a similar experience as well as help each other cope and recover from such events.
Senior’s 4 Safety: This program is to inform senior citizens about victimization and to help support those who have been victimized. It offers safety tips, tools, and TECHNIQUES to minimize our seniors from becoming a victim. Our staff conducts workshops in churches, Senior Homes, and at community events.
Stand for Something Youth Program: The Stand for Something Youth Program: Is a school-based project of Northwest Victim Services which presents 60-minute modules in the classrooms of elementary, middle, and high school students. The subject of these learning modules is crime victim rights, gun violence, safety strategies and community safety. Our goal is to interact with the youth to see what we can do to ensure they are safe.
