The Jean Nidetch Women's Center (JNWC) received a grant from the Department of Health and Human Services, Division of Child and Family Services VOCA funding for $103,105 to begin July 1. This funding will allow the JNWC to continue providing holistic trauma-informed services to members of the UNLV community who have or are experiencing sexual assault, domestic/dating violence, sexual harassment, and/or stalking. It also provides funding for the creation of a program designated for birthing persons who have experienced trauma to have access to trauma-informed doula services on and off campus. This program will be the first of its kind in Nevada.
