Some exciting news worth celebrating! Our Supervised Visitation Program is making its return, and we couldn’t be happier to share that intakes for the program will officially begin Monday, November 9! 💜

We cannot thank our community enough for the generosity, encouragement, and support you have shown FAS while we navigated the loss of this important program. Your belief in the value of these services has meant so much to us.

We know how important this service is to families in Alamance County, and being able to offer it again is a meaningful step forward for FAS and those we serve. We are so happy to welcome this program back!

Our hearts are full of gratitude for everyone who joined us at last week’s Candlelight Vigil. 💜 Thank you to our incredible community for showing up, standing together, and honoring survivors and those whose lives have been impacted by domestic violence.

A special thank you to our amazing speakers for sharing their voices, stories, and powerful messages. Your words reminded us why awareness, advocacy, and community support matter.

Together, we stand with survivors, honor those we’ve lost, and keep shining a light on the importance of ending domestic violence. 💜

DVAM Community Partner Spotlight: Elder Justice Project 💜

Today, we’re proud to highlight the Elder Justice Project through Family Justice Center of Alamance County !

Abuse can happen at any age, but older adults may face unique barriers when seeking help. Supported by a four year grant from the Office on Violence Against Women, the project works to build a community where older adults can live safely, independently, and with dignity.

Through outreach, specialized professional training, direct services, and a multidisciplinary Coordinated Community Response, the project raises awareness of abuse in later life, addresses gaps in services, promotes collaboration among professionals, and improves how our community recognizes and responds to abuse. These efforts help expand access to support for survivors aged 50 and older.

Family Abuse Services is proud to be one of the project’s community partners, contributing its expertise in domestic violence and victim services to help strengthen these efforts.

We’re grateful for all they do, the opportunity to be part of this initiative, and our shared commitment to ensuring older adults experiencing abuse are connected to the resources they deserve.
