The Domestic Violence Action Network (DVAN) of Kent County is a collective of local partners, including nonprofits, governmental agencies, business leaders, survivors, and community members dedicated to improving our community’s response to domestic violence and leading systems-change to increase support for victims and survivors of intimate partner violence while also increasing accountability for those who commit abuse. DVAN operates using a collective impact model to advance community-driven strategies, identify system gaps, and foster cross-sector collaboration.
