The California Partnership To End Domestic Violence

What The California Partnership To End Domestic Violence does

The California Partnership to End Domestic Violence (the Partnership) is a California-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit coalition founded in 1986 and designated as California's recognized statewide domestic violence coalition. It represents a membership of over 1,000 survivors, advocates, member organizations, and allied individuals, and works to advance policy, prevention, capacity building, and communications aimed at eliminating domestic violence. Its policy work has produced over 200 pieces of legislation cumulatively, and it recently secured $103 million to protect California's crime victim services. The organization does not provide direct services to survivors but refers them to local member programs through a county-based map and the National Domestic Violence Hotline.

The Partnership operates a coalition-based go-to-market model with organizational membership tiers ranging from $275 to $1,100 annually based on budget, allied organization dues of $100, and individual memberships of $50 (with reduced rates for survivors, students, and retired advocates), plus dues waivers for Tribal and Native organizations. Revenue is supplemented by federal grants, including funding from the Family Violence Prevention and Services Program within HHS (Grant 24YCCASDVC). Its products are operational rather than technological: an online member portal on coalitionmanager.org handling applications, donations, and events; a distance learning platform providing the required 40-hour advocate certification; a resource library of curricula, toolkits, immigration and legal resources; and member engagement channels including a bi-weekly eNews, regional meetings, webinars, Policy Advocacy Day, and an annual conference.

The Partnership maintains core strategic partnerships with national and state entities, including NNEDV, Strong Hearted Native Women's Coalition, the National LGBTQ Institute on Intimate Partner Violence, and the California Work & Family Coalition. Staff are distributed across California, and leadership includes a Senior Director of Prevention and Capacity Building, a Public Policy Coordinator, and a Policy Team Leader. The organization is governed by a Board of Directors with no parent company, no private equity backing, and no equity funding history.

Product overview

Scale indicators5 records

Recent moves5 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Broad incumbents

• Futures Without Violence: Established national organization addressing domestic and sexual violence through policy, training, and direct program work. A broader incumbent with national reach and direct service components that extend beyond CPEDV's coalition-only model.

Direct peers

• New York State Coalition Against Domestic Violence: New York's recognized statewide domestic violence coalition providing policy advocacy, training, and member services. Mirrors CPEDV's coalition structure and statewide policy role, serving as a direct functional peer in a different state.
• National Coalition Against Domestic Violence (NCADV): National grassroots coalition working to end domestic violence through public education, policy advocacy, and member mobilization. Operates a coalition/membership model similar to CPEDV but at the national level rather than state level.
• Pennsylvania Coalition Against Domestic Violence: Pennsylvania's recognized statewide domestic violence coalition, operating an almost identical model: membership-based, policy advocacy, training, and member capacity building for service providers. Highly comparable structurally and operationally to CPEDV.
• Washington State Coalition Against Domestic Violence: Washington's recognized statewide DV coalition providing policy advocacy, training, and member capacity building. Operates the same coalition model as CPEDV and is one of the closest structural peers in another state.
• NNEDV (National Network to End Domestic Violence): National coalition representing domestic violence organizations at the federal level. CPEDV is a state-level affiliate within NNEDV's network, making it the most direct functional peer — both operate as membership-based advocacy coalitions advancing DV policy, prevention, and member capacity building.
• Texas Council on Family Violence: Texas's recognized statewide domestic violence coalition offering policy advocacy, prevention education, and member support. Closely comparable to CPEDV in mission, model, and scale as a state-level DV coalition.

Emerging players

• National LGBTQ Institute on Intimate Partner Violence: National organization providing resources and advocacy on intimate partner violence affecting LGBTQ+ communities. Comparable in its prevention and policy work on a specific DV-affected population, and an active partner of CPEDV.
• Strong Hearted Native Women's Coalition: Coalition dedicated to serving Native and Indigenous survivors of domestic violence. Operates a similar coalition model focused on a specific population and is a core partner of CPEDV; comparable as a culturally specialized peer organization.
• Casa de Esperanza: National Latin@ network focused on ending domestic violence in Latin@ communities through advocacy, training, and community mobilization. Comparable in coalition-building and prevention work, with a specialized demographic focus that overlaps CPEDV's equity priorities.
