Texas Council on Family Violence (TCFV) is in its 31st year of Building a Safer Texas. For the past 30 years TCFV has worked to enhance the capacity of shelters and programs to serve thousands of battered women, children and men in local communities across Texas. TCFV’s mission is to promote safe and healthy relationships by supporting service providers, facilitating strategic prevention efforts and creating opportunities for freedom from domestic violence.
Two women are killed by their intimate partners each week in Texas. If only we could have changed their stories...However, for the 201,456 Texas victims of family violence including 11,776 adults and 15,591 children who received shelter services in 2007, there is still hope. TCFV helps and supports both service providers and victims in an effort to bring hope and healing to victims and provide them with the happy ending they deserve.
Honoring Women in Our Lives (HWOL) is held annually to raise awareness and funds in support of TCFV. This year, four outstanding, amazing women were selected to help honor a woman in your life. For an online gift of $20, the chosen card will be sent acknowledging your gift to TCFV to support victims of family violence and recognizing them as someone special.
Do you know women in your life who have the same outstanding qualities and characteristics as Amelia Earhart, Rosa Parks, Lady Bird Johnson and Barbara Jordan? Let them know how extraordinary they are!
