Preventing violence starts with education and resources

Domestic Violence Awareness and Prevention

We are committed to reducing domestic violence in Utah by funding prevention, awareness, and training. Our RLC Family Foundation grants provide much-needed financial support to organizations working to end adult and child domestic violence.
Together, we can make a difference in the lives of survivors and protect potential victims. If your 501(c)(3c) organization offers domestic violence awareness and prevention services, let’s connect.

What is the first step in preventing domestic violence?

Awareness.

By teaching Utah residents about the details and prevalence of domestic violence, we can lower the number of cases and better support victims. At RLC Family Foundation, we are committed to backing domestic violence prevention programs and strategies throughout the state.

What We Fund

Domestic violence prevention training and education play critical roles in identifying and ending abuse. Our foundation supports many charities that develop and share resources for at-risk individuals, as well as counselors and therapists.

Programs for Violence Survivors

Unfortunately, no program or organization can get ahead of every domestic violence case. That’s why RLC Family Foundation funds services for victims and survivors, not just preventative strategies.
