Our Beginnings
The Coalition Against Rape and Domestic Violence
was originally created in 1994 when a group of seven
community members came together to form a Board of
Directors.
At that time, CARDV provided limited crisis intervention
services with referrals to other community agencies.
Progress
In 1998 CARDV issued it’s first report of success,
showing our 24-hour crisis line handled 335 calls
and services were provided for 250 individuals.
Staff and volunteers worked hard to get information
about our services to the community and our numbers
grew.
CARDV Today
In 2004, the CARDV crisis line handled 1401 calls,
and services were provided to 1057 individuals.

Never doubt that a small
group of thoughtful, committed citizens can
change the world. Indeed, it's the only thing
that ever has.
