Violence Prevention ↘
YWCA Evanston/North Shore’s comprehensive violence prevention program offers community and professional training, school-based education, and youth advocacy. Our goal is to raise awareness about the complex dynamics of domestic violence and address the root causes of interpersonal violence. Through skills-based training, we promote healthy relationships, foster accountability, and empower communities to support survivors and prevent violence before it occurs.
All of our programming is customized to meet the needs of the communities that we serve.
