Preventing teen dating violence through awareness, education, and advocacy. Our 'Gaming Against Violence' program is an award-winning and evidence-based approach to violence prevention through prosocial games. We produce, publish, and research intentionally designed prosocial games to engage, educate, and empower young people about important issues affecting them. The topics addressed by these games include bystander awareness, consent, cultural literacy, gaslighting, healthy relationships, media literacy, power and control, resilience, and teen dating violence warning signs. Jennifer Ann's Group does this work in memory of Jennifer Crecente.

Casa de Esperanza de los Ninos strives to break the cycle of child abuse and neglect for at-risk infants, children and their families by providing comprehensive residential and family support programs that transform people and communities. Kathy Foster founded Casa de Esperanza de los Ninos in 1982 when she learned of the death of a toddler due to abuse by his mother’s new boyfriend. Kathy was so moved that, with a meager $500 donation, she rented a home, received an Independent Family Foster Home License, and began providing emergency foster care for children in crisis. This began a lifelong dedication to ensuring that children at risk were kept safe from abuse and neglect, and Casa de Esperanza was formed. For forty years, Casa de Esperanza has provided safety for more than 6,500 abused, neglected and at-risk infants and young children in the greater Houston area. Casa de Esperanza focuses on children in the most vulnerable age group, newborn to six years old, who are most at-risk for abuse and neglect and who cannot speak for themselves. From the first house in Houston’s Third Ward, Casa de Esperanza has grown into a trauma-informed, holistic program with a gated neighborhood of 10 homes near the Texas Medical Center and numerous community foster families, providing a comprehensive continuum of care for children and families in need.
