Each of us possesses a remarkable gift: the power to help. We exercise it by listening to one another, lending a hand, sharing resources and showing kindness. Each of our Impact Partners have shared their gifts with us, which have allowed Women In Distress to continue to provide the quality services to our participants free of charge - giving hope and a chance for a new start for families in crisis.

The following Impact Partners enhance the services we provide to the women, men and children we serve. Their ideas, wisdom and philanthropic investments help us to continue reaching our goal of keeping families safe.


 

Women In Distress of Broward County, Inc. is the only nationally accredited, state-certified, full service domestic violence center serving Broward County. This means that The Council on Accreditation (COA) has verified that Women In Distress consistently operates with integrity, credibility and the utmost level of quality. The accreditation process takes place every three years where Women In Distress participates in a detailed review and analysis of the administrative operations and service delivery against national standards of best practice.

COA is an independent accreditor of the full continuum of community-based behavioral health care and social service organizations in the United States and Canada, and is one of the three leading accreditors of such service providers. COA is widely recognized by states and national organizations as an accrediting body with the capacity, scope, and ability to contribute significantly to the improvement of the behavioral health and social service delivery systems. Originally known as an accrediting body for family and children's agencies, COA has earned public recognition from mental health and substance abuse organizations.
