The Annual Rockland County Stop F.E.A.R. Coalition was sponsored by the Center for Safety & Change. October is Domestic Violence Awareness month and this conference highlighted the significant connections between stalking and intimate partner violence.

For over 45 years, Center for Safety & Change has worked tirelessly with victims, survivors and their family members, offering life-saving and life-changing programs and services to thousands in Rockland and beyond. On October 5, 1979, they opened the doors to an Emergency Shelter and waited for the rotary phone to ring. The first day they filled 11 beds and on the second day they filled the remaining four. Since then their phones have not stopped ringing. Today the shelter remains a safe haven for thousands of children and families. From Rockland Family Shelter to Center for Safety & Change, the agency has grown into the only victim-centered non-profit organization in Rockland, offering free and confidential life-changing programs and services to victims and survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, human trafficking and other crimes.
