The role of the Community Development and Education Department at Canyon Creek Services is critical in realizing our organizational vision of “Communities Free of Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault.” One of our key initiatives is to stop domestic and sexual violence from ever happening in the first place and to improve our social response to these types of violence. Awareness and prevention efforts at CCS are aimed at reducing the prevalence of these forms of violence and promoting health and safety in our communities.
Our programming is directed at cultivating environments where violence is not tolerated, challenging unhealthy social norms that contribute to violence perpetration, promoting gender equity, and strengthening families and relationships. Our department utilizes a public health approach to violence prevention in support of this cause.
Violence is preventable! For information or resources on how you can prevent violence and support our efforts at CCS, contact our team at prevention@canyoncreekservices.org.

Stylists, barbers, estheticians & make-up artists can spot signs of abuse in clients: bruises, self-blame, and sudden changes. Salons & spas are safe havens and are often one of the few places victims can safely share that they need help.
Members of our organization are now licensed to provide this training, helping beauty professionals learn how to:
Recognize signs and symptoms of domestic abuse
Respond to victims using discreet and empathetic techniques
Refer victims to professional safety resources
If your salon or school is interested in receiving this training, please reach out to prevention@canyoncreekservices.org.
