Women Against Abusive Relationships – WAARs mission is to “Break the Cycle” of violence in intimate partner relationships through awareness, education and prevention programs.  We teach participants how to identify the signs of abusive behavior and what a healthy relationship looks like.  WAAR also offers empowerment to females through our Healing Space in an effort to help them make informed choices necessary for healthy relationships and self-sufficiency, after experiencing intimate partner violence.

WAAR has served over 1800 women and teens via workshops and conferences in schools, community centers and churches to communities at large in Allegheny County.  For more information please contact Roxanne Epperson 412.818.3225 or visit their Facebook page at WAARHeals.
