A:
Yes, there are free domestic violence classes available in Fresno for people without income.
The Marjaree Mason Center offers free domestic violence intervention programs, including both in-person and virtual classes. You can reach their 24-hour crisis hotline at (559) 233-HELP (4357) to learn more about their programs and get started. The Central California Family Crisis Center also provides free counseling and education programs - contact them at (559) 784-0192.
Your local courthouse may be able to connect you with additional free resources, including court-approved batterer intervention programs that offer sliding scale or no-cost options. Remember that many religious organizations and community centers in Fresno also provide free support groups and counseling services related to domestic violence.
If you're experiencing immediate danger, please call 911 or the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-SAFE (7233). Help is available 24/7, and you deserve support regardless of your financial situation.
