Partner Spotlight
AACI Asian Women’s Home
2400 Moorpark Avenue, Suite 300, San Jose, CA 95128
The AACI Asian Women’s Home, the domestic violence program of Asian Americans for Community Involvement (AACI), was created in 1986 to address the unmet needs of abused Asian women and children, the primary victims of domestic violence. Eight years later, the AACI Asian Women’s Home opened an emergency shelter,the only Asian domestic violence shelter in Santa Clara County.
The AACI Asian Women’s Home offers a range of linguistically competent and culturally sensitive services to abused Asians. By providing direct services and cooperating with other service providers to develop creative solutions, the AACI Asian Women’s Home bridges service gaps and creates a support network for abused Asians and their children.
Community Solutions is a comprehensive non-profit human services agency serving South Santa Clara County and the surrounding areas of South San Jose and San Benito County. Since 1972, we have responded to the growing and changing needs of our community, serving several thousand people from young children to older adults each year.
When sexual assault victims seek medical attention and rape kits are performed, those women, men and children are asked to surrender their clothing for DNA evidence. Once clothing has been surrendered, the traumatized victim has nothing else to wear home but a hospital gown…only adding insult to injury.
The Grateful Garment Project is proud to provide new clothing, food, grooming supplies and other vital resources to Sexual Assault Service Providers throughout the State of California via 6 core programs:
Resource Closets for hospitals and rape facilities
Resources for safe house and shelters for trafficking victims and sexually exploited children
Emergency backpacks for Law Enforcement for human trafficking victims and children
Gift cards for youth to encourage follow up appointments
Gift cards for clients to purchase clothing for court appearance
