Are a concerned resident who wants to work with your neighbors to build a strong community that is taking action around an important social issue?  Have you had personal experience with the hurt and fear that domestic violence can cause? Do you have a friend you are worried about because she or he is in a violent relationship? Are you a neighbor who’s concerned about the people next door because of some things you have heard or witnessed?

If you have been inspired by the work that others just like yourself are doing in the community towards domestic violence prevention, we invite you to join us! Close to Home’s work of preventing domestic violence in the community depends on the commitment and involvement of people like you.  As part of the Network, you can get involved in one of the existing projects, or you can add your own ideas of what the community needs in order to prevent domestic violence.  Please consider getting involved today, and lending your helping make lives, homes, and the community safer for all.  For more information, please feel free to call Close to Home 617.929.5151.
