Please make plans to join us on October 9 for the Cherokee County Domestic Violence Vigil. 📍Ball Ground City Park 177 Old Dawsonville Road, Ball Ground, GA 🕕 Friday, October 9 | 6 p.m. Together we can break the silence and bring hope to our community. #DVAM2026 #CandlelightVigil #domesticviolenceawareness #remembertheirnames

Every child deserves to feel safe, supported, and cared for. During times of uncertainty, simple safety routines can help children feel more secure and prepared. Consider: • Identifying trusted adults they can contact if they need help. • Teaching them how and when to call 911. • Keeping important phone numbers somewhere easy to find. • Creating a family safety plan that is appropriate for their age and needs. Every family's situation is different, and safety planning is not one-size-fits-all. At Cherokee Family Violence Center, our advocates work alongside families to create personalized safety plans that help protect both survivors and their children. If you'd like to learn more about safety planning resources, call our legal advocates: 770-479-1804 ext. 200. #NationalSafetyMonth #ChildSafety #FamilySafety #CFVC40 #SafetyPlanning #helphopeheal

For 31 years, Meg gave her heart and her voice to Cherokee Family Violence Center. She believed fiercely in the people we serve and never stopped believing that our community could do better. Our hearts are broken as we share the passing of Meg Rogers, our Executive Director and a tireless advocate for survivors of domestic violence. Meg believed in this work with every part of herself. She challenged us, encouraged us, made us laugh, made us think, and reminded us why we do what we do. We will miss her deeply. But we will carry her with us. Her voice will remain in this work. Her courage will remain in this organization. And her belief in survivors will remain at the heart of Cherokee Family Violence Center. We grieve the loss of an extraordinary leader, colleague, mentor, friend, and champion. And we give thanks for the extraordinary gift of having had Meg Rogers in our lives. Her work continues. Her legacy remains. In respect to Meg's wishes, in lieu of flowers, please donate to CFVC using this link: https://secure.qgiv.com/for/inmemoryofmeg

✨ Welcoming Dr. Karen DiBella ✨ As we continue to honor the legacy of Meg Rogers, Cherokee Family Violence Center is pleased to welcome Dr. Karen DiBella into her new role as Interim Executive Director. Since joining CFVC in 2019, Karen has been dedicated to supporting children and families impacted by intimate partner violence. We are grateful for her leadership, experience, and continued commitment to the families we serve. As we move forward, our mission remains the same: to enhance safety, empower survivors, and advocating for a community standard of zero violence in the home. Please join us in welcoming Karen to this new role. 💜

We are so grateful! The 5th Annual Robidou Company CARES Golf Scramble was the best one yet! We could not have done it without all of our sponsors. Thank you all for going above and beyond!

As Domestic Violence Awareness Month comes to a close, we thank everyone who has supported CFVC this month - it has been a doozy. Special thanks go to: Credit Union of Georgia, Woodstock City Church, J. Michaels' Prime, Riverstone Corner Bistro, and Dr. Fahrenheit HVAC for sponsoring weekly events to celebrate our amazing advocates and staff. Donations of comfort snacks, a hearty French toast breakfast with all the trimmings, Mocktail Happy Hour, and Spooky Ice Cream Social were #DVAM highlights for sure. Thank you for loving on our staff who provide so much support to domestic violence victims and their families. @cuofga @woodstockcitychurch @jmichaelsprime @riverstonecornerbistro @dr.fahrenheithvac #communitypartners #helphopeheal #CFVC #DVAM2026

What an incredible day! This past Saturday, Cherokee Family Violence Center was proud to be part of Give a Kid a Chance, serving families at both the Hillside Church campus in Woodstock and Revolution Church in Canton. Together, this amazing community effort helped more than 2,000 children get ready for the new school year with backpacks, school supplies, valuable community resources, and plenty of smiles along the way. We're grateful for the opportunity to connect with so many families, share information about our services, and stand alongside the organizations and volunteers who make events like this possible. Thank you to everyone who stopped by our table, said hello, and helped make the day such a success. We love being part of a community that comes together to support its children and families. Here's to a great school year ahead! 🎒💜 #GiveAKidAChance #CFVC #CommunityStrong #BackToSchool #CherokeeCounty WoodstockGA CantonGA

When people think about safety, they often think about smoke detectors, seat belts, or emergency plans. But what about safety at home? If you are experiencing abuse, feeling controlled, threatened, or afraid, you do not have to navigate it alone. A conversation with an advocate can help you understand your options, create a safety plan, and connect you with resources that fit your situation. 👉You do not have to be ready to leave a relationship to call. 👉You do not have to be in immediate crisis to reach out. 👉You simply have to take the first step. 📞 24-Hour Crisis Hotline: 770-479-1703 Every call is confidential. Every conversation matters. #NationalSafetyMonth #SafetyStartsHere #CFVC #DomesticViolenceAwareness #YouAreNotAlone #HelpHopeHeal #CFVC40
