Join the Mending Circle Program
Imagine being part of a strong network of Asian/Pacific Islander women, LGBTQ+ individuals, and families who are dedicated to breaking the cycle of harm through collective action. With this program, you’ll have a unique opportunity to make a lasting impact in the lives of survivors who need that extra support—sometimes, all someone needs is a friend to be there for them.
This program will bring together a group of 15 Asian/Pacific Islander domestic violence survivors and 15 volunteers for a year-long journey. They will work together to learn DVRP’s anti-violence curriculum and strengthen survivor’s personal care networks.

Other Ways to Give
-
Support a Survivor. Your donations make a huge difference! DVRP relies on generous individuals like you to support our work. Did you know less than 1% of philanthropic dollars go to the Asian/Pacific Islander community, even though it’s the fastest-growing ethnic group in the U.S.? Be part of the change—donate today and help a survivor!
-
In-Kind Donations. Most survivors we work with are immigrants, low-income, and have limited English skills. We accept in-kind donations like international calling cards and pre-loaded Smartrip cards for bus/metro. We currently don’t take material donations like clothing right now. Send your in-kind donations to: A/PI DVRP, PO Box 14268, Washington, DC 20044.
