Join Darryl Evey, Executive Director of Victorville’s Family Assistance Program (FAP). Since 1986, FAP has been providing shelter and advocacy services to victims of domestic violence (DV). Over time, services have expanded and include a shelter, a transitional housing program, satellite offices in the cities of San Bernardino and Fontana, two runaway/homeless youth shelters, a homeless youth street outreach team, an anti-human trafficking program, and other programs and services to support the needs of the Inland Empire. FAP’s goal is to build stronger families by creating safe and stable homes. Learn more about their programs and the impacts of poverty and houselessness in our region.

Collective Care

Collective Care: Uncovering Poverty is a collaborative series of programs developed by the Center for Culture and Social Justice (CCSJ), the Panther Care Program, and the Wignall Museum.  Impacts from the global pandemic continue to affect our students and communities, and record level rates of food and housing insecurity affect the basic needs of millions of Americans.
