Program accomplishments
- The Texas Council on Family Violence (TCFV) continues to evolve its service delivery model to maximize impact and efficiency. By leveraging both in-person and virtual platforms, TCFV enhances accessibility, strengthens organizational systems, and ensures comprehensive support for survivors, service providers, and communities statewide. Collectively, this work reflects a comprehensive, systems-based approach to addressing domestic violence across prevention, intervention, response, and long-term stability. The Council strengthens the full continuum of safety by pairing upstream prevention strategies with coordinated, high-risk response systems, while ensuring frontline service providers remain stable and accessible to survivors. Research and data inform policy advocacy and system improvements, while training, technical assistance, and leadership development reinforce consistent, survivorcentered practices statewide. Oversight of high-risk response, support for accountability-focused intervention programs, and coordination during disasters ensure that safety efforts are resilient and responsive under all conditions. Together, these strategies position the Council as both a statewide systems leader and a direct capacitybuilder, aligning policy, practice, and community infrastructure to improve outcomes for survivors and their families across Texas. Coordinated Response and Safety Strategies: The Council advances survivor safety through research, systems coordination, and evidence-based intervention. Through this work, the Council leads the Honoring Texas Victims report, providing statewide analysis to inform policy, practice, and cross-system improvements in responses to domestic violence. The Council oversees Domestic Violence High Risk Teams, strengthening multidisciplinary approaches that prioritize victim safety and offender accountability. Core functions include training and technical assistance on the Lethality Assessment Protocol (LAP), equipping law enforcement and community partners to identify high-risk cases and connect survivors to immediate support. Through data-driven research, collaboration, and training, the Council promotes consistent, effective, and survivor-centered responses across Texas systems. Support to Service Providers: The Council assists more than 100 community-based family violence service providers across Texas to strengthen programmatic, administrative, and financial capacity, with a priority on ensuring survivor access points remain stable, available, and responsive. This work includes strengthening Battering Intervention and Prevention programs to increase professional knowledge, skill, and program capacity for working with individuals who have used violence against an intimate partner. The Council provides leadership development, financial consults, and tailored technical assistance to support organizational sustainability and effective service delivery. The Council also leads coordination of disaster response efforts to maintain continuity of services and survivor safety during emergencies. Capacity-building strategies include statewide conferences, regional and virtual trainings, and individualized consultations. Prevention: The Council advances innovative, community-driven strategies to prevent domestic and dating violence and foster healthy relationships across the lifespan. Through training, consultation, and technical assistance, the Council builds the capacity of service providers and the communities they serve. This work prioritizes partnerships with domestic violence programs, community leaders, and non-traditional partners to sustain local and statewide efforts that positively influence social norms and systems. Statewide initiatives center public health and evidence based approaches to violence prevention for people of all genders. Public Policy: The Council serves as a unified voice on behalf of domestic violence victims and the agencies that serve them by advancing legislative and state agency policy, systems change, and funding initiatives that improve responses to survivors. The Council provides extensive technical legal assistance and resources to professionals across systems. This work also focuses on systems that support survivors' long-term safety and stability, such as housing, healthcare, and direct services. The Council's policy work is grounded in three areas of specialized expertise: programmatic and administrative policy, economic and family well-being systems including housing and workforce issues, and statewide interventions within the civil and criminal justice systems.Expenses $4,366,061 · grants $845,303 · revenue $477,020
