The
North Carolina Coalition Against
Domestic Violence (NCCADV) is a
community of agencies and
individuals who serve battered
women and their children. We are
committed to building a society
in which our shared beliefs and
institutions discourage violence
against women. NCCADV was
founded in 1981 with 21
participating programs and now
includes over 90 member
programs. Areas of support to
member programs include
technical assistance, training,
information about public policy
initiatives, and activities to
increase public awareness.

Program materials
NCCADV staff members also attend regional and committee
meetings to provide updates from the Coalition office.
Additionally, the Coalition sponsors semi-annual membership
meetings to encourage networking and program sharing.
Public Awareness
Activities
NCCADV works with a variety of other entities to keep the
issue of domestic violence in the public eye. Local and
statewide collaborations have in the past produced several
media and print campaigns. National resources are often
available to us as well for awareness campaigns. In 2001,
NCCADV produced an informational video about the Coalition and
our state’s efforts to end domestic violence. Additionally,
member programs receive monthly mailings from the Coalition
with information on statewide and national issues that may
require action on the part of the programs. Individual and
organizational members also receive quarterly newsletters that
keep them up to date about what is happening in the domestic
violence movement.
