Information
Organization's Own Description:
Asian Pacific Women's Center (APWC), a nonprofit 501(c)3 organization, was founded in 1993. Asian Pacific Women's Center (APWC, Tax deductible ID: 93-1102854) is dedicated to providing a safe haven and support services for women and children who are survivors of domestic violence. Our mission is to provide an environment that is sensitive to the cultural and language needs of Asian and Pacific Islander domestic violence survivors and their families, as they acquire the necessary skills and personal strength for self-sufficiency and violence-free lives.
APWC helps every family move into their own residence. The need for secure, affordable, and safe permanent housing for survivors of domestic violence that provides stability for these families is crucial. APWC has partnered with a non-profit developer, Abode Communities, to build a fifty-two unit affordable housing complex in Van Nuys – Ivy Terrace. Fifteen units are dedicated to domestic violence families graduating from the transitional shelters throughout Southern California. APWC serves as the supportive service partner of the project to help these families in needs. Doors opened in July 2010.
APWC is also committed to education and outreach, raising awareness about domestic violence, and fostering violence prevention.
