Membership Information
What is the Family Justice Center Alliance?
The Family Justice Center Alliance is a non-profit organization and was launched in 2006 in response to the increasing demand for technical assistance from existing and pending Family Justice Centers across the country and around the world. The Family Justice Center Alliance serves as a technical assistance provider to the Untied States Department of Justice, Office on the Violence Against Women for all federally funded Family Justice Centers under the President’s Initiative and other Family Justice Centers supported by the Grants to Encourage Arrest Policies and Enforcement of Protection Orders Grant Program. The Alliance also works with centers outside the federal initiative and abroad. There are currently 33 operational centers in the United States with three international centers in Croydon, England; Monterrey, Mexico; and Waterloo, Canada. There are an additional 30 centers in the various stages of planning or development in the United States and around the world. In addition to general and targeted technical assistance, training and consulting, the Family Justice Center Alliance hosts an annual international conference, provides shared learning opportunities such as staff exchange programs, international internships, web-based education programs, and training in all areas of family violence.
