Georgia Commission on Family Violence

At GCFV, we believe that a coordinated community response is the best way to address the problem of family violence. A coordinated community response means that every segment of the community - including judges, advocates, law enforcement, medical professionals, educators, and concerned citizens - is responsible for helping to end family violence. In other words, everyone, including you, can be a part of the solution. GCFV works with communities and systems across the state to provide leadership in strengthening Georgia's families by ending family violence.

GCFV is administratively attached to the Department of Community Supervision (DCS). GCFV appreciates the strong support of DCS to our mission to strengthen Georgia families by ending family violence. DCS believes that all Georgians deserve to be safe and protected in public places as well as private residences.
