Frequently asked questions

Facts

Domestic Violence Overview 

  • More than 100,000 calls in Florida are received by law enforcement regarding domestic situations, domestic violence is among the top of these calls. ARC has developed a program like no other 501c3 in the United States, so pay attention below to understand what we do and how we accomplish something no one else has. 

 

Fear

  • Fear after being threatened by their abuser that if they leave more harm will come. Confusion about love and what this is. Many victims may go to shelters then realize this is more of a negative experience because they are treated like prisoners and put under pressure causing the same mental distress as being at home. 

 

No Place to go or embarrassment 

  • Victims stay in situations for many reasons but here we explain the true reason. Another is victims say they have no place to go or they would leave the abuser. In many cases the untold quiet side of embarrassment causes people to feel guilty and don't speak of these situations to their families for fear of what might happen. ARC has the resolution to this problem as well. 
  • Victims become the shadow of themselves, withdrawing from friends, family and their own children as the abuse continues. 

 

Financial and no Support 

  • Victims are accustomed to their environment and feel they will loose everything and or because they may not work depend on the abusers income. Some victims want to work but the abuser may have told the victim they may not work or something will happen to them. ARC has the resolution for this.

Shelters

Shelters demeaningly cause more damage than good. Woman describe most shelters as jail or a punishment, causing worst mental health. ARC recognizes the importance of having proper support from friends, family and community. We stand by clients to uplift and not rush victims through our programs. 

What we do?

ARC networks with community on a daily bases bringing together volunteers to assist in our efforts. We have mobilized teams from across the state of Florida in which with meet together to strategize exit plans for those whom are at risk and ready to leave their abuser. ARC teams are available to law enforcement statewide in Florida. In cooperation with law enforcement and Florida courts, ARC can execute a relocation for those victims who are in need of restarting their lives. 

Where do our clients go?

Clients are taken to different locations depending on where their situation occurred. We take victims as far away from the abuser as possible but do not disclose victims location details accept to law enforcement agencies and or courts. We take victims 150, 250, 350 miles away from their abuser. Victims do not go to shelters but go to one of our network places, this may be across the state or offshore or islands. Our staff will be with victims at all times. 

ARC DV Program 

How is this done

Someone calls ARC or we are contacted by a local agency about the victim, we the speak to to the victim in a safe zone, this may be Police or Sherriffs department, a Court, a Shelter, or undisclosed safe location. Once we understand the situation we then contact law enforcement about the matter to coordinate time and date for a peaceful transition. 

Relocation Moment

ARC prefers to do our relocations at night for security purposes and traffic is lower. Our teams show up in a convoy to a location accompanied by law enforcement, usually with a moving truck or van and even an auto transport, 2 SUV's and a lead vehicle. With military precision we have the victim being evacuated from the area within minutes or up to 39 minutes max. 

Where do we take clients and keep them safe while rebuilding their life

Housing, Jobs, Transportation 

Time Limits

Time limits to complete our program are not relevant when dealing with case by case situations. We do not impose strict regulations on how long a victim is in our program simply because we don't treat our clients as the problem. Our compassion is true assistance and refusal to fail anyone in need.
