Please plan to join us as we celebrate our milestone 15^th annual breakfast & awards ceremony by helping us select the First 100 Plus Class of 2026! Established in 2011, CCADV's First 100 awards breakfast was established to recognize leaders working across Connecticut to improve the lives of domestic violence survivors and their children.

The challenges facing survivors and the organizations that serve them have never been more urgent. Funding cuts, the loss of critical grants, and harmful policy shifts all from the federal level are threatening programs that families across Connecticut rely on for their safety. At the same time, more survivors are reaching out for help, and the complexity of their needs continues to grow.

We know that people across Connecticut have been stepping up in their local communities to support survivors and ensure access to the life-saving services provided by CCADV’s 18 member organizations. Let’s recognize their leadership and commitment to this movement!
