We are committed to social justice and are dedicated to shaping California and Washington law to prioritize the safety of survivors and their children. We are also committed to supporting the statewide networks of advocates for survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, human trafficking, and legal aid service providers.

This is an exciting time for FVAP and for this role in particular. We just expanded to open our second office in Washington earlier in 2021. Expansion raises new challenges and opportunities to grow, streamline, and integrate processes. We value diverse experiences and backgrounds. FVAP’s clientele is extremely diverse, and we serve individuals and advocates throughout both states, including rural, suburban, and urban populations. The Deputy Director can join our exceptional and dynamic staff in Oakland, California or Bellevue, Washington. The immediate supervisor is the Executive Director.
