Where We Stand
The Battered Women and Children’s Memorial Garden is an alliance of people desiring an end to violence. We form a beacon of hope to honor the disempowered, remember those lost and inspire justice through bearing witness, education, advocacy and service.
Together, we create a world in which each child, woman and man values one another equally.
We choose these fundamental principles for guiding our thinking, conduct and practices as an organization.
