We are Connecticut's First Family Justice Center offering streamlined and free confidential crisis services to victims and survivors of domestic and sexual violence and child abuse in one safe location. As an FJC we work closely with police, prosecutors, civil/legal service providers and and community-based advocates to provide a coordinated, collaborative response that saves lives and empowers victims to become self-sufficient survivors. In addition we provide community-based education and training to create the social change that is critical to break the cycle of violence. We help men, women and children and their family members--of any age, race, religion and gender, impacted by domestic violence and sexual assault and child abuse in the communities of Bridgeport, Easton, Fairfield, Monroe, Stratford and Trumbull.

It is NSTVA's mission to help end violence across the country and to bring awareness to many illnesses that are affecting our culture.

Our mission is to create a new reality for girls in poverty. We will pursue this mission by building an international network of Justice Centers which speak up for the poor, particularly girls in poverty.
