About Us

Angels of Love is a dedicated organization focused on supporting victims of domestic violence through comprehensive services including

education, support groups, legal advocacy, and awareness events. Since its inception in 2010, this 501(c)(3) non-profit has been a vital resource

for women, children, and families affected by domestic violence. Founded to bridge the gaps left by underfunded and understaffed governmental services, Angels of Love aims to empower those in need by providing a full spectrum of assistance. As a catalyst for advocacy, we actively represent the

voices of women and children, engaging with local, state, and federal officials to drive change. By collaborating with like-minded organizations,

we enhance our collective influence and work to promote community-based prevention efforts, public awareness, and educational initiatives that

foster a safer, more supportive environment for all.
