California Partnership to End Domestic Violence

About California Partnership to End Domestic Violence

A defining feature of California Partnership to End Domestic Violence is its statewide concentration on organizations serving survivors of domestic violence in California, with every listed recent grant going to a California recipient. The foundation’s recent awards show a consistent pattern of direct support for domestic-violence assistance, survivor services, and legal or advocacy work. Lumina Alliance received the largest listed grants in both 2024 and 2023, at $184,716 and $137,630, for domestic violence assistance and assisting victims of domestic violence. Other sizable awards went to Desert Sanctuary Inc in Barstow, Rainbow Services in San Pedro, and Cora in San Mateo, all for domestic violence assistance. The grant list also includes organizations serving different parts of the state, from San Francisco and Sacramento to San Bernardino, Watsonville, and Eureka. Several recipients are service providers or family justice organizations, which aligns with the funder’s stated focus on survivor support, emergency shelter and housing stability, trauma-informed counseling, legal advocacy, safety planning, and crisis intervention. The legal name and leadership point to a California-based partnership structure centered on domestic violence prevention and response, rather than a broad general-purpose funder.
