“These tools have changed the game.”
The CDV TOOLKIT
We designed the Childhood Domestic Violence toolkit in order to provide full access to our key tools, all in one place, whenever you need them. Whether being used in an addiction facility, community center, domestic violence shelter…the most consistent feedback we receive is that, “these tools have changed the game.”
Whether you are an individual directly working with those who experienced childhood domestic violence or a leader of an organization whose mission it is to serve others in need who may have experienced childhood domestic violence, this toolkit was designed with you in mind.
The toolkit includes resources for those who those who experienced childhood domestic violence, whether the individual is a child, teenager or an adult. Resources that, according to many, “have changed the game for those working to support those who experience childhood domestic violence”.

Truths Pendant
Copper pendant with the first letter of each of the 10 TRUTHS engraved on each side.
We have found the moment a person who experienced childhood domestic violence has a breakthrough where they can see truly, that they are not the lie, but the truth, that is a powerful moment. Celebrating that moment reinforces the discovery of other truths. The Truths Pendant was created to celebrate that moment and as a reminder of all of the truths, the emotional states worth cultivating.
