Women Against Abuse believes in the importance of political engagement in order to improve opportunities and resources for victims of domestic violence. In WAA's 2011-2012 Strategic Plan, organization leaders emphasized leadership, safety, community engagement, and sustainable infrastructure as key to future progress.
 

• Leadership -- influence public policy and deliver effective programs as a leader in the struggle to end domestic violence
• Safety -- promote physical, social and emotional safety for survivors of domestic violence
• Community Engagement -- develop community-based services, partnerships and a coordinated response to domestic violence
• Sustainable Infrastructure -- sustain high quality core services and promote strategic growth

WAA invites you to become involved in our advocacy efforts by being informed about current legislation for debate and how it may affect you, and to call or email your local representatives to ensure that your voice is heard.
