The South Dakota Network Against Family Violence and Sexual Assault's Mission Statement is working together to promote victim rights for a safer South Dakota.

The Network is a state-level non-profit agency comprised of caring people dealing with the concerns of domestic violence and sexual assault victims. Our member programs employ and support individuals of all racial, social, religious and economic groups, ages, and lifestyles. Rural, urban and tribal areas are proudly represented.

The Network believes that the abuses of power in society foster domestic violence, rape, gender inequality, racism, and poverty by perpetuating conditions which certain groups benefit from the domination of others. We believe that violence results from the use of force or threat to achieve and maintain control over others in intimate relationships. The Network opposes

 
the use of violence as a means of control over others and supports equality in relationships. All of our programs and services are rooted firmly in the belief that people victimized by crime have the absolute right and responsibility to assume power over their own lives by making their own informed choices regarding their empowerment journey.

The Network is dedicated to the empowerment of those victimized by domestic or sexual violence. Therefore, we are passionate about eliminating personal and societal violence and welcome the help of all people as allies. We believe in a world free of violence and we are committed to turning this dream into a reality.
