Transitioning Victims of Domestic Violence, Sexual Assault, and Sex Trafficking into Survivors

The San Diego Family Justice Center, part of the Office of the City Attorney, is a unique and safe place where survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, and sex trafficking are our highest priority. The SDFJC provides a safe, confidential space in a welcoming environment. Thank you for taking the first-and most important-step to break the cycle of violence.

Domestic violence can happen to

anyone regardless of age, race,

sexual orientation, gender identity,

gender, religion, education level or

socioeconomic background.
