Powering the Movement Against Violence

Anyone who supports the mission, goals, and philosophy of TCFV can easily apply to become an individual member, applications are reviewed weekly. Individuals who join will receive a membership account that can only be utilized by that individual member.

Organizational members must meet all eligibility requirements and complete a membership application to be considered, organizational applications are reviewed quarterly. Once membership is approved, the organization will receive a membership account with a designated admin feature that offers account access abilities to all employees of the organization.

All membership accounts will allow members to make payments, update contact information, access the training hub, and retrieve other member benefits.

Anyone who is a survivor of intimate partner violence or sexual assault is eligible for a complimentary membership. This is considered an individual membership and will receive all the benefits this category offers.

The short answer is up to three months. Organizational membership applications are reviewed quarterly by the TCFV Membership Committee. Recommendations for membership approval are then submitted to the TCFV Board of Directors for consideration. The board of directors presents final decisions on the second Friday of February, May, August, and November.

A good rule of thumb is…if your organization is a nonprofit and provides family violence services for more than 50% of your clients, you would be considered for Category I or Category II. If you do not provide direct serves to survivors, are a for profit company or a government agency, your organization would be considered for Category III.

Yes! TCFV offers many resources, publications, and affordable training opportunities to nonmembers. To request a nonmember account, email our Membership Manager. You can receive more customized, one-on-one support by becoming an individual member and accessing membership benefits through your personal account.

Organizational membership dues for Category I and II are assessed annually and are based on your organization’s overall family violence program budget. Members receive a yearly renewal pledge form which includes payment schedule options. Membership dues for these categories can be paid annually, biannually, or quarterly.

Organizational membership dues for Category III are accessed annually and are based on your organization’s operating budget.
