STOCKTON, CA – PREVAIL, formerly Women’s Center-Youth & Family Services, is holding their 11th annual Christmas in July to help meet participants’ needs. This year’s Christmas in July encourages the community to make a monetary donation to help an individual, family, or child who comes to PREVAIL looking for healing, advocacy, and empowerment.
“Family Violence does not distinguish time or place. Life itself presents different added stressors and summertime may be hard on some families: kids being out of school and spending more time at home, having to pay for daycare, higher utility bills, etc. Even though this added stress is not the cause of family violence, it increases the likelihood for incidents to arise. With your support, we can ensure services to all through those difficult times, any time of year,” states Krista Fiser, CEO of Women’s Center-Youth & Family Services.
Donations will be accepted during July by visiting WeShallPREVAIL.org or mailing it to 620 N. San Joaquin St., Stockton, CA 95202.
For questions or additional information, please visit WeShallPREVAIL.org or call (209) 941-2611.
