Community Education

Alexandra House understands that education is critical to creating significant, long-term change. We offer free presentations and facilitated dialogues to community groups and individuals on the basics of domestic and/or sexual violence, signs, intervention, and awareness. This is a non-threatening way to learn more about the issues and take a stand through partnership with Alexandra House. Participating groups have included faith-based groups, civic and service clubs, and social justice–oriented organizations. We will craft the presentation to fit your group’s specific timeframe and goals. Request a presentation here.

Topics we offer include but are not limited to:

• Alexandra House Services
• Fundamentals of Domestic Violence
• Introduction to Domestic Violence
• Effects of Domestic Violence on Children
• Introduction to Sexual Violence
• Rape Culture
• Street Harassment
• Youth Advocacy: Sexual Violence and Dating Violence
• Advocacy for Adult Domestic Violence Victims/Survivors
• Abuse Later in Life

If there is a topic that is not listed here, please contact Jess Cheney at jcheney@alexandrahouse.org and we will be happy to discuss that with you.
