About the Family Violence Project

About the Family Violence Project:
 
Our history extends back to our incorporation in 1978. In pursuit of our MISSION we serve the communities of Kennebec and Somerset Counties in Maine, with offices located in Augusta, Waterville, and Skowhegan.

In recent years our staff has grown to over twenty-five employees, and we are assisted by a network of over seventy active volunteers who make our work possible.

Our funding sources include the Maine Department of Health and Human Services, Maine State Housing Authority, federal grants, United Way, municipalities, private grants, special fundraising events, and donations.
