Overview

Mission

Increasing the self-esteem of the population of women we serve.

What it reported doing in 2010

The r.o.s.e. Fund (regaining one's self esteem) is a new england non-profit, based outside of boston, chartered to break the silence and the cycle of domestic violence (dv) and teen dating violence (tdv). The report card program focuses on transforming high schools, colleges and communities from 'unaware and unprepared' to 'informed and effective' in fully understanding and addressing these issues. The rose fund is actively breaking the silence and the nimby (not in my backyard) myths associated with these issues on a high school by high school and community by community basis across new england. We expose these issues by 'localizing' them. We then educate, energize and empower groups of concerned citizens, parents and principals to become an active and effective part of the solution.
