Ohio Domestic Violence Network Financial Freedom Corps
Ohio Domestic Violence Network is the statewide coalition against domestic violence. We work with agencies around the state that provide services to victims experiencing domestic violence and/or sexual assault.
These agencies are the program sites where are our members will be placed. Member service activities are centered around housing assistance, financial empowerment, and youth empowerment at the Program Site. Sites may choose the member's focus areas, so some members may focus on housing assistance while others focus on facilitating financial empowerment classes or youth activities.
We provide monthly professional development trainings to members as well as access to all of our ODVN trainings and many of our agency partners' trainings. Our program is the perfect opportunity to get direct experience for a career in social services while serving your local community at the same time.
