Domestic Violence Task Force
In June 1994, Council member Mark Ridley-Thomas and former Council members Rita Walters and Marvin Braude introduced a motion to establish the Domestic Violence Task Force to coordinate domestic violence policy and program development among city departments and agencies and other public and private partners.
The Task Force members reflect a broad range of expertise within the area of domestic violence and community organization. Voting membership of the Task Force consists of one primary voting member and an alternate from each Council Office, the Mayor's Office, City Attorney and key City departments.
The mission of the Task Force is to assist City officials and managers in developing and coordinating domestic violence programs and making recommendations to the City Council on legal advocacy, legislation and other policies relating to domestic violence. Standing committees address specific issues pertinent to law enforcement, legislation, grant funding and children.
The Task Force meets the second Monday of each month. For further information, contact the Human Services and Family Development Division at (213)744-9311, TTY (213)744-9329.
