Advocacy Family Network was created from a simple but urgent belief: individuals and families affected by domestic violence should not have to navigate complicated systems or search for help alone.

What began with a conversation over lunch in Huntsville has grown into a community-driven nonprofit committed to strengthening connections among survivors, advocates, service providers, law enforcement, and community partners. AFN works to close gaps through advocacy, education, outreach, resource connection, and collaborative community support.

The North Alabama Pickleball Paddle Classic turns that mission into action. Every team registration, sponsorship, and donation helps AFN continue building stronger pathways to information, support, and connection for individuals and families in our community.

Whether you play, sponsor, donate, or cheer from the sidelines, you are helping serve up something bigger than a win... you are helping strengthen a community where people can find support, connection, and hope.

Together we heal. Together we thrive.
