The Center for Anti-violence Education (CAE) is a multi-racial, intergenerational, community-based, nonprofit organization that develops and implements violence prevention programs. CAE’s holistic programs help participants build skills, heal from past abuse, and organize to counter the destructiveness of violence in their lives and communities. CAE's programs focus on women, girls and LGBTQ communities, with a special sensitivity to the needs of survivors. Participants build skills to enable them to heal from, prevent, and counter violence. We do this work to actively create a peaceful, just, and equitable world.
