Friends Against Family Violence
Advocacy, Crisis Support, Shelter, and Prevention
24-Hour Crisis Hotline:
Workshops to help us all find and hold onto
better relationships, better boundaries, and a better you.

When people come to our domestic violence shelter, we often find that individuals have experienced a lifetime of unhealthy relationships.
The cycle starts from childhood, and it continues over and over. And we keep asking…
What if...
We all had the tools to hold full, positive relationships?
We could reduce the stress we experience with others?
We could provide our children emotional stability?
We could express ourselves instead of defending ourselves?
What if it was all within your reach?

Within My Reach is an evidence-based curriculum teaching participants skills that will increase their odds of success in life. The lessons taught will help them reach their goals, by developing Healthy Relationships and applying Conflict Resolution tools. When what they consider to be their most important relationships, especially romantic relationships, tend to be troubled the possibility of success in every other aspect of life can be derailed... their goals, school, job, finances, friendships, and especially if they are a parent or have a parent in a troubled relationship, then raising children and parenting are deeply affected.
Within My Reach units will cover: • Identifying factors of Healthy Relationships • Recognizing the different types of Safety’s in relationships • Making wise clear choices when it matters the most • Learning tips and what questions to ask when we are considering our most important relationships • Discovering their strengths and weakness, in order to know what to build on and what areas need improvement • Identifying and recognizing dangerous communication patterns • Where conflict begins and how to stop, reduce, and exit dangerous communication patterns • Learning Speaker Listener Technique and applying it • Understanding distrust and knowing the traits that help make forgiveness concrete. Also recognizing that forgiveness is not always possible or healthy • Looking at the dynamics of fatherhood, stepfamilies, and co-parenting, and how the effect they can have on relationships • Discovering that making tough decisions is possible and can be done when you have the right tools and skills
Virtually all people have aspirations for happy, healthy, and stable relationships. Within My Reach teaches skills that are applicable and can be implemented in every relationship dynamic. They are a must for any Healthy Relationship (friends, neighbors, co-workers, children, and partners).
