The mission of Casa Fortaleza is to organize the Spanish communities for the eradication of all forms of sexual violence through education and outreach, and to provide counseling, empowerment, support, and education around sexual violence to Spanish speaking survivors in Central New Mexico.

Casa Fortaleza is an agency dedicated to providing support services that include broad understanding and treatment of the life experiences of individuals and the families affected by sexual violence. Our services are aimed at recognizing the needs of our clients as well as empowering and respecting their self-determination during their time of need.

Project Sakinah initiates and nurtures community efforts nation-wide to grow healthy families that protect our women and children – and men too – from neglect and homes broken by violence. Project Sakinah envisions a Muslim community free of domestic violence where families can live healthy and productive lives

Dar al Islam initiated Project Sakinah in 2009 in response to a very public episode of violence in the Muslim community. After two years of research, strategic planning and resource development, we introduced the project to the public in 2011. Our national network of professionals and collaborators help educate and build the skills needed for peaceful marriages, effective parenting, and the wise guidance of our Youth.
