THE SODA FUND INC.

The SODA Fund™ provides support to domestic abuse victims as they flee dangerous environments, survivors as they start a new life, and all individuals as they begin the healing process. Educates youth and young adults so they do not become the victims of tomorrow. Places free advocates and lawyers in courtrooms throughout the nation so no victim ever stands alone. Works for better laws and protections as we continue to raise awareness of domestic abuse and violence issues, and support other organizations who work in partnership with our mission.

There is a great deal of work to be done to prevent domestic abuse and violence, to help extricate those who are trapped in these situations, and to help Survivors Of Domestic Abuse (SODAs®) thrive as they escape and begin new lives. Thus, our mandate includes the following:

Awareness: We will start a national dialogue about the prevalence of domestic abuse and violence in our country at differing ages and stages.

Prevention: We will publicize the warning signs of domestic abuse and violence so that people will recognize the danger when faced with it.

Education: We will educate about the danger of domestic abuse and violence, about its escalation, and how to find a safe way out of it.

Advocacy: We will advocate for better and safer laws for victims and survivors in our US Courtrooms, and seek ways to keep victims from being further traumatized by virtue of seeking legal assistance.

Healing: We will share information and strategies for beginning a new life after domestic abuse and violence, and encourage victims to get the help they need to navigate the emotional impact.
