Progress Through Unity Conference

This year, our conference focuses on collectively creating and sustaining healthy communities. While providing safety and advocacy to victims of domestic violence and their children remains a priority, PCADV has recognized the need to pursue a new model of prevention in the field of domestic violence, repositioning the movement from a reactive to a proactive role. To generate and sustain real change, it is necessary to engage multiple and historically different sectors and disciplines in effective, sustainable efforts in order to prevent violence before it occurs. Join us in this year’s conference!

Don’t miss the opportunity to hear from author and advocate Piper Kerman, our keynote speaker during the Luncheon on Thursday, October 25th. Your paid registration includes one ticket to this exciting and inspiring event.

A limited number of tickets to the Luncheon with Piper Kerman are available for purchase at a cost of $50/ticket.

In honor of Carole's amazing work on behalf of victims of domestic violence, the PCADV board has established The Carole Alexy Legacy Fund.
