The mission of WHW is to end domestic violence through advocacy, education and prevention; and to offer safety, support and empowerment to women and children who have been victims of domestic violence. There are over 190 reported domestic violence cases in Maui each month.

“Why it matters. Domestic violence is the willful intimidation, physical assault, battery, sexual assault, and/or other abusive behavior perpetrated by an intimate partner against another. It is an epidemic affecting individuals in every community, regardless of age, economic status, race, religion, nationality or educational background. Violence against women is often accompanied by emotionally abusive and controlling behavior, and thus is part of a systematic pattern of dominance and control. Domestic violence results in physical injury, psychological trauma, and sometimes death. The consequences of domestic violence can cross generations and truly last a lifetime.” National Coalition Against Domestic Violence.
