Overview

Despite the widespread and devastating consequences of intimate violence current social services and state interventions fail to reach the many women and children unable or unwilling to engage in these systems. A 2003 Ms. Foundation report concluded that mainstream interventions offer inaccessible disempowering and even harmful solutions to women and children seeking safety. While other studies confirm that women facing violence are most likely to turn first to family and friends many current anti violence approaches discourage the involvement of these groups by limiting intervention options to the social service and criminal justice systems. Based in Oakland California Creative Interventions targets these immediate and intimate networks and offers resources to maximize their capacity to intervene effectively in violence. The result is the creation of family and community safety networks and systems of intervention mobilized at early and multiple points of abuse.
