How We Work
E.I.A.
E.I.A
Empowerment method supports services provided by many clinics, shelters, faith based organizations and nonprofit organizations. EIA is based on the belief that survivors and the victimized of family/domestic violence should have access to information, education, and other necessary social, economic and spiritual support to make the necessary decisions that are well informed to best reflect their own personal interests and needs. Instead of exhausting all of the various resources to eliminate the violence, which is not controlled by those that are victimized.
The EIA method uses Prayer, knowledge dissemination, training, and counseling to create a set of services that the victimized control, such as post-victimization assistance and risk minimization. This method can also be extended to churches, mosques and other places of worship along with other communities organizations allowing them to take action collaboratively to prevent family/domestic violence and report and treat cases that do happen through the empowerment In action networks.
