KEDS helps children and families in Napa County heal from their exposure to domestic violence and prevent future violence. KEDS is a program of NEWS Domestic Violence and Prevention Services.

Long Service Description

The ultimate goal of the KEDS Program is to help children and families heal from their exposure to domestic violence and to prevent future violence. Children who have been exposed to domestic violence often learn the destructive lesson that it is acceptable to use violence and emotional abuse in relationships. As a result, these children are more likely to use or to expect abuse and violence in their own relationships as adults… continuing the cycle. However, with early intervention and support, a brighter, violence-free future is possible.

KEDS Offers:

Support Groups for Children
Counseling Services
Resource information & Referrals
Assistance with applications for children’s services
Children’s activities in NEWS office and Shelter
Crisis intervention
Outreach & Education

All Services are free, bilingual and confidential.

El objetivo final del programa KEDS es ayudar a los niños y las familias a recuperarse de su exposición a la violencia doméstica y prevenir la violencia futura. Los niños que han estado expuestos a la violencia doméstica a menudo aprenden la lección destructiva de que es aceptable usar la violencia y el abuso emocional en las relaciones. Como resultado, estos niños son más propensos a consumir o esperar abuso y violencia en sus propias relaciones cuando sean adultos… continuando el ciclo. Sin embargo, con una intervención y un apoyo tempranos, es posible un futuro más brillante y sin violencia.
