Aid to Victims of Domestic Abuse

AVDA’s Prevention Team of Matt Tyler, Markos Fleury, and Rashard Perry have over 15 years combined experience of professional training, prevention education facilitation, and youth development focused strategies on dating and domestic violence. The team has experience providing training throughout Palm Beach County, statewide, and nationally.

Together they implement AVDA’s Commit to Change: A Violence Prevention Initiative. AVDA’s Commit to Change program engages and educates youth, parents, community members and organizations, to build and sustain safe, healthy, and equitable relationships to reduce violence in our communities. Within the Commit to Change program, is AVDA’s Committed Men initiative to engage men and boys in the prevention of violence against women and girls. AVDA’s prevention programs are age appropriate and evidence-informed to support youth in the development of healthy relationships and social change. The team has supported youth in leading community impact projects to prevent domestic and dating violence in their schools and community. AVDA’s prevention team believes one of the best ways to change an individual’s knowledge, attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors is through education and action.
