The Ann Arbor Mayor's Task Force on Increasing Safety for Women in Ann Arbor, MI. is a large community coalition effort dedicated to addressing violence against women in our community.We have accomplished a number of tasks, including putting a large red, public transit painted bus (only type of bill-board allowed in our community)on the road for two years, which carries the slogan, "There's No Excuse for Violence Against Women" and phone numbers of the three local service providers specializing in assistance to survivors of domestic and sexual violence.The bus is covered with excuses often given by those who perpetrate violence against women.

Strange is fortune that I would stumble upon these pages in the midst of organizing a group (and event) aimed toward celebrating women through art and advocacy. I have only been able to scrape the surface of the toolbox chapters, but for a group with an overabundance of creativity and enthusiasm and a decided lack of organizational experience, what I have read thus far may prove to be tremendously useful. I thank you for making this public information.

Associate Commissioner for Service Integration at the Texas Health and Human Services Commission, the umbrella hhs agency in Texas. Our division and a number of our agencies have concentrated community components. We are actively assisting communities to build capacity. We have lots of experience with coalition building and other aspects that go beyond the information on this website. However, I think the site is a wonderful idea and look forward to its full development.
