BY THE ROSE ANDOM CENTER
EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
JOB ANNOUNCEMENT
OUR MISSION
The Rose Andom Center will improve the lives of domestic violence victims
by facilitating better access to services and staff of community organizations
and government agencies in a single, safe location.
OUR VISION
To create a community that will not tolerate domestic violence.
The Need
In Denver, more than 4,000 cases of domestic violence are reported to the police each year,
with many more never reported. Currently, victims often have to travel to a dozen or more
different agencies, often with no reliable transportation and children in tow. This process is
overwhelming, shakes their belief in justice and frequently discourages them from seeking help
in the future.
Our Solution
Modeled after other Family Justice Centers, the Rose Andom Center will have community
organizations and government agencies working together under one roof to provide for the
needs of individuals and families affected by domestic violence. By co-locating staff and crucial
services in one place, not only will these organizations and agencies be able to provide more
and better coordinated services, but victims and their families will also be able to access the full
range of services and support they need in a single, safe location.
At the Rose Andom Center, victims and their families will have access to domestic violence
counseling, mental health services, crisis intervention, civil legal support, law enforcement
services, job readiness and search assistance, and information regarding the criminal legal
system among other critical services. Victims will be given referrals to community organizations
that can provide for victims other needs.
The Rose Andom Center will support the work of partners by facilitating the connection to
services, providing the technological and communication infrastructure, creating opportunities
for cross training and collaboration, and developing process and outcome evaluation measures
to help determine the impact of bringing service providers together. This support structure will
allow partner community organizations and government agencies to more easily work together.
Services will be streamlined in order to increase the likelihood that individuals and families will
find safety and stability in their lives.
The Rose Andom Center Goals:
 Provide high quality services and resources that empower victims and their children to
live free from domestic abuse.
 Prevent domestic violence through education and community efforts that foster and
