There are many reasons someone may stay in an abusive relationship. These are just a few.

At the Kern County Family Justice Center, we never pressure anyone to leave an abusive partner. That decision belongs to them. What we can do is provide education, resources, and support to help increase safety.

Everyone deserves compassion, not judgment. 💜

📚✨ When children visit our Family Justice Centers with a parent, we encourage them to choose a book to take home, offering a small source of comfort during a difficult time.

Recently, our book supply was running low, but we are incredibly grateful to the staff at the Kern County District Attorney's Office for coming together to donate to our shelves.

While taking home a book may seem like a small gesture, it can make a meaningful difference for a child. We are thankful for this support and look forward to continuing to serve children and families throughout our community. 💜

☀️ Domestic violence incidents in the United States tend to rise by about 12% during the summer months compared to other seasons.

📈 Here in Kern County, the increase is even more alarming. In 2025, there were 48% more reported domestic violence incidents in August than in December.

Behind every statistic is a person, a family, and a community impacted by violence. 💜✨ If you or someone you know is experiencing domestic violence, free resources are available to help you stay safe, create a plan, or leave an abusive relationship if you choose to do so.

🏢 Visit a center at 1300 18th Street in Bakersfield or inside the Lamont Courthouse. Walk-ins are available Monday – Friday 8am – 4pm. For transportation assistance, please call 661-868-5950.
