Back To Eden is a nonprofit fellow program for survivors of intimate partner violence and sexual violence. It is a CoC initiative for survivors to develop leadership skills in order to foster high skills/high occupation growth. Back To Eden's unique framework is tailored specifically to survivors with the intent to address the barriers that are most common in marginalized populations.

One in four women experience domestic violence and/or sexual violence. It takes 7-10 attempts before a survivor leaves and stays out of the abusive relationship primarily due to limited resources, social determinants, economic inequity and access to care. It is our mission to equip survivors that are out of the abusive relationship while living independently or in transitional living centers by addressing these barriers through our intensive fellow program. Back To Eden is committed to reducing the recidivism of survivors returning to an abusive relationship, past or present.
