SURVIVORS AND THEIR CHILDREN WILL BE CONNECTED TO NWS ORGANIZATIONS AND THE BROAD ARRAY OF SERVICES AVAILABLE AT THE FAMILY PEACE CENTER (FPC). SOJOURNER ADVOCATES WILL USE THE SALESFORCE BASED CENTRALIZED DATA SYSTEM (CDS) TO MAKE AND TRACK REFERRALS TO FPC PARTNERS. INDIVIDUALS WHO USE VIOLENCE WILL BE CONNECTED TO THE JOURNEY TOWARDS LEGACY PROGRAM OR DIVERSION PROGRAMS AT THE ALMA CENTER. NWS AMBASSADORS WILL SUPPORT ADVOCATES IN DEVELOPING RELATIONSHIPS, INCREASING AWARENESS OF FAMILY VIOLENCE THROUGH COMMUNITY OUTREACH, TRAINING AND EVENTS. AS A RESULT, NWS FAMILIES EXPERIENCING VIOLENCE WILL HAVE A MORE INFORMED SUPPORT SYSTEM WHERE THEY LIVE, WORK, PLAY AND WORSHIP AND PATHWAYS TO HEALING SERVICES.
