Services or Research Projects
Community Services received the Training and Services to End Violence Against Women with Disabilities Grant through The US Department of Justice Office on Violence Against Women. The three-year grant includes a cooperative agreement with the Family Justice Center to increase capacity to respond to individuals with developmental disabilities who are victims of sexual assault, domestic violence, dating violence and stalking. The Family Justice Center of Erie County, a victim service provider serving victims of sexual assault, domestic violence, dating violence and or stalking, is based right in Buffalo, practically out the back door of our Administrative Office. We have a founding partnership with the FJC established nearly 10 years ago. We would occasionally make referrals to the other for services, although not though a codified procedure whereas with a memorandum of understanding between us will aid our collaboration efforts. The number of people with developmental disabilities who face incidences of violence in our community is staggering. By collaborating our efforts with the FJC we can provide expertise in assisting these victims to move forward with their lives and become survivors.
