Partnership Against Domestic Violence

Since 1975, we have been dedicated to empowering survivors of domestic violence, offering safety, education, and life-changing resources to individuals and families in need. Over the past five decades, PADV has grown into a trusted pillar of support, serving as a voice for survivors and a champion for prevention.

Emergency Shelter
We have two emergency shelters providing services to survivors of domestic violence in Gwinnett and Fulton County.

Legal Advocacy
We have trained and compassionate advocates to guide survivors through the process.

Crisis Line – 404-873-1766
While many of our callers are in immediate danger, we also assist people with loved ones struggling with domestic violence or those who just need a chance to talk as they try to decide the next steps. The crisis line is always open and available.

Outreach & Prevention
PADV strives to inform our community about the many intricacies of domestic violence and what we all need to do to prevent and end it.

Supportive Housing
PADV’s Supportive Housing Program provides an important bridge to self-sufficiency for domestic violence survivors and their children. We partner with property owners and landlords in order for this program to be a success.

Community Support Groups
There is power and support when we come together to help each other. At PADV, we provide community support groups to survivors of domestic violence.
