Our Mission

The Nebraska Coalition to End Sexual and Domestic Violence enhances safety and justice by changing the beliefs and behaviors, and dismantling the systems that perpetuate sexual and domestic violence, human trafficking, stalking, and other forms of violence.

Our Vision

We believe our world and all who live in it are sacred.  We envision a world where violence is a distant memory and healthy relationships prosper for people of all identities.

Our Values

Accountability
We value accountability and interventions that promote individual, community, and systems change. We recognize traditional systems are ineffective for many and support access to justice that restores individual and community safety, healing, and resilience.

Social Change
We value social change centered around the needs of those most marginalized and believe this will lead us towards ending violence.

Collaboration
We cannot do this work alone. We believe change comes through connection and that community-centered collaboration leads to solutions. 

Safety
We believe every person has the right to exist safely in this world and strive to foster environments rooted in dignity and respect where everyone can thrive.

Social Equity
We honor the social equity roots of our work.  We uphold the ideals of fairness and justice to ensure all people have access to what they need. 

Survivor Leadership
We believe that those with lived experience are vital in the movement to prevent and end violence.  Their leadership should drive this work. 

Well-being
We believe that individual and collective wellness is critical to sustaining our work, health and the movement.
