Community Education

Professional In-Service Training: R.E.A.C.H. will provide in-service training to professionals such as medical, law enforcement, educators, and child care workers. Our goal is to provide professionals an understanding of the dynamics of domestic violence and sexual assault and help them to establish protocols to use when dealing with victims of abuse.

Community Education: R.E.A.C.H. is always happy to speak to any group or club, no matter how large or small the group, or the age of the members. We feel one of the best defenses against family violence is educating the community about these dynamics and how they may help. If you would like us to speak at your meeting or event please contact our office by calling 369-5544.

School-Age Education: R.E.A.C.H. will also provide educational programs to school-age children. We have many different resources and programs used to educate children and young adults. These range from conflict resolution, to growing up in homes with domestic violence, to healthy relationships.

If at any time you would like for one of our trained volunteers to assist you with information that will give you a better understanding of what happens in a domestic violence situation and the appropriate steps to take in preventing continued abuse, please feel free to contact us. We are here to help educate the community about these situations.
