Welcome

The Coalition Against Violence and Exploitation (CAVE) is a project aimed at identifying and eradicating conditions that perpetuate violence against women, children, and men. CAVE was created as a response to the unique set of challenges faced by South Texas residents with regards to violence and exploitation in the border area. There are three main components of the CAVE project: support, research and prevention of sexual and domestic violence in South Texas.
