Our Philosophy

SCCADVASA believes that the roots of domestic and sexual violence both lie in and are intertwined with historical and contemporary oppressive structures built around race, culture, gender, (dis)ability, and hurdles that are constructed in education, economics, and other areas to prevent all people achieving their full potential in safe communities.

Get Involved in Stopping Domestic Violence & Sexual Assault

Sexual assault and domestic violence are public health issues that impact every individual and every community across the world. When we all work together, we will stop domestic violence and sexual assault and ensure that South Carolina is a safe community for every person. There are many ways to get involved. See below for some ideas of how to help and stay engaged. Follow us on our social media platforms (link below) or sign up for our e-newsletter to keep abreast of ongoing ways to get involved in our network.
