Mission
The Anti-Violence Project (VAVP) work to address and end violence, with a focus on the LBTQIA+ and BIPOC communities. We provide direct support, education, and advocacy to create safer, more inclusive environments for all individuals, especially those impacted by domestic, sexual, and interpersonal, and state violence.
Vision
We envision a world where all LGBTQIA+ individuals, particularly BIPOC people, live free from violence, oppression, and discrimination. Through collective empowerment and community led initiatives, we strive to foster safety, healing, and justice for all.
