About [Edit]
Men Stopping Violence works locally and nationally to dismantle belief systems, social structures, and institutional practices that oppress women and children and dehumanize men themselves. We look to the violence against women's movement to keep the reality of the problem and the vision of the solution before us. We believe that all forms of oppression are interconnected. Social justice work in the areas of race, class, gender, age, and sexual orientation are all critical to ending violence against women.
What we do:
- Train professionals
- Educate the public
- Intervene with violent men
- Mentor interns
- Publish articles
- Ally with other organizations
