Mission
The mission of the Valley Women's Center is to provide counseling,
education, support and referral services for women and their
family members at risk for alcohol and drug abuse, domestic violence and
other threats to family stability.
We provide a wide range of services and programs. We have ongoing support groups such
as Relapse Prevention, Parenting Classes, Domestic Violence Support Groups,
Addiction Education, Anger Management, and Grief and Loss Support Group.
Addiction is a physiological issue, not a moral issue.
There is no longer any doubt among researchers that there
is a genetic predisposition to addiction. Children of alcoholics
have a 50-to-80% greater chance of becoming alcoholics themselves.
The American Medical Association recognizes alcoholism
as a chronic, progressive disease involving physical and
psychological symptoms which, if left untreated, will cause
permanent mental impairment, physical incapacities and eventual
death.
