Who are the people in our Village?

*Peggie Reyna, Deaf & Disabled Community Advocate*

“I am a sustaining donor to Peace Over Violence because the excellent work done by this agency provides clients with the skills, services, and support needed to end the cycle of violence and create a new, violence-free life for themselves and their children, grandchildren, and future generations.”

Jose Meneses, Youth Over Violence Institute Alumnus, Peace Over Violence Board Member

“I’m a sustainer because I believe in giving survivors of sexual assault and domestic violence the hope that they have an opportunity to live a fulfilled life; because I believe in giving survivors the agency in pursuing the future that’s right for them; and because I believe that POV can support them in that journey. “

Dr. Ramani Durvasula, Ph.D., Founder and CEO, LUNA Education, Training and Consulting, Clinical Psychologist, Professor Emerita, California State University Los Angeles, New York Times and International Bestselling Author

“I give to POV because now more than ever we must support women and families experiencing domestic abuse and intimate partner violence. The trauma-informed focus, intersectional lens, and holistic support provided through POV as well as the training of future advocates and clinicians is what our greater Los Angeles community and the world at large need today and every day.”

*Dawn Bey, POV Board Member and Counselor Advocate Volunteer*

“I am a monthly sustainer because I know how vital POV is in our community!”
