Our support for women

In Padua there is a group of women who have been working for years to ensure that violence against women does not continue to be a normality. They are the psychologists, lawyers, educators and volunteers of the Centro Veneto Progetti Donna, the association manages five anti-violence centers recognized in our province and which actively collaborates with all public and private social entities. Together with the five Centers, the association manages also eight Anti-Violence Help Desks in the provincial territory.

Centro Veneto Progetti Donna is a ONLUS voluntary association that offers support to Italian and foreign women in difficulty and involved in situations of violence and domestic and non-family abuse. It was born in Padua in 1990 on the initiative of a group of women to give a concrete response to the numerous requests for help.

The Anti-Violence Center is a project of the Centro Veneto Progetti Donne that welcomes women who are victims of violence. Every day, for thirty years, the Center's vouluntaries have welcomed women in difficulty, listened to their stories, offered psychological and, if necessary, legal support.
