VIP projects include the Everychild Foundation Center for the Vulnerable Child, the VIP Community Mental Health Center, Inc., the Community-Based Assessment and Treatment Center, the Sexual Assault Center, the 24-Hour Domestic Violence Response Team, the Adult Protection Team, and the Los Angeles County Elder Abuse Forensic Center. All of these projects come together as a unique Family Advocacy Center that helps 20,000 people survive and rebuild their lives each year.
