These videos are some of the first in the United States to provide information on domestic and sexual violence accessible not only to Deaf but to all. Vera House and ARISE, along with our community partners, have created an inclusive system to provide comprehensive services to people with disabilities and Deaf people who are survivors of domestic and sexual violence. These videos are some of the first in the United States to provide information on domestic and sexual violence accessible to everyone. Project EMERGE strives to ensure access, equality, empowerment and safety through the efforts of knowledgeable providers. This project is supported by Grant No. 2006-FW-AX-K015 awarded by the Office on Violence Against Women, U.S. Department of Justice. The opinions, findings, conclusions, and recommendations expressed are those of the authors and do not necessarily reflect the views of the Department of Justice, Office on Violence Against Women.
