A Note from Sara Tennen

While the world seems to be coming to a halt, our clients are still experiencing domestic violence, child abuse and neglect, and other dangerous circumstances. We are continuing to provide legal and support services to our existing clients and will shortly begin offering Domestic Violence Call-In Clinics to offer legal advice, emotional support, and targeted referrals to domestic violence victims, caregivers of at-risk children, and other vulnerable victims in the District. We need your support now more than ever.
