Root Center Donated $10K to the Prudence Crandall Center to Support Survivors of Domestic Violence

Rates of domestic violence in Connecticut have surged with the COVID-19 pandemic, and organizations like the Prudence Crandall Center in New Britain are being pushed beyond capacity as they work to support those in need. Root Center serves 750 patients each day in the New Britain area, many of whom also require support for domestic safety concerns, and we are partnering with the Prudence Crandall Center and donated $10,000 to support housing, services, and advocacy for those in need. Root Center is proud to partner with Prudence Crandall Center in supporting survivors of domestic violence; we believe that sharing our strength empowers communities and fosters lasting, positive change. Great things happen when nonprofits support nonprofits!
