The Arizona Coalition to End Sexual and Domestic Violence (ACESDV) is the designated dual issue coalition in Arizona addressing both sexual and domestic violence for over 30 years. Our purpose is to increase public awareness about the issues of sexual and domestic violence, enhance the safety of and services for sexual and domestic violence victims and survivors, and end sexual and domestic violence in Arizona communities. We do this by providing education and training, technical assistance, advocacy at the legislature in public policy, and assistance to survivors and advocates through our Legal Advocacy Hotline.
