The Coalition will use the funding to continue its work to end domestic violence in New Hampshire. “We must ensure survivors of domestic and sexual violence have a safe place to turn, and I'm truly inspired by the crucial work the New Hampshire Coalition Against Domestic and Sexual Violence does on behalf of New Hampshire women and their families,” said Kuster. “No one should be afraid to live in their own home, and that’s why it’s critical that we continue to support efforts like these to end domestic violence. Congratulations to the Coalition on this grant award and thank you to all the dedicated men and women who work day-in and day-out to support victims and end the violence.” The Grants to Sexual Assault and Domestic Violence Coalitions Program supports coalition efforts by coordinating victim services and responding to instances of violence against women. State coalitions provide rape crisis centers and battered women's shelters for victims of domestic violence with training, funding, and technical assistance. “The Violence Against Women Act has saved lives and helped millions of survivors find safety, security and independence from their abuser,” said Maureen McDonald, Community Relations Director at the New Hampshire Coalition Against Domestic and Sexual Violence. “The grants to state Coalitions are critically important to supporting our statewide advocacy work here in New Hampshire. This is the only funding stream that supports policy work like the recent successful efforts to strengthen our laws around domestic violence, sexual assault, and human trafficking.” ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
