Narika is a Fremont based domestic violence intervention and prevention <br /> agency offering free counseling and support services to victims of domestic violence <br /> and abuse since 1992. Its $1,000,000 request is to secure a townhome unit in <br /> Pleasanton to convert into a transitional house for domestic violence victims and <br /> survivors. City staff's recommendation is to not support this project in FY 20/21. The <br /> City would need more familiarity with the organization, their operating plans for serving <br /> Pleasanton residents, and their track record in order to consider such a large funding <br /> request. Similar services are already available in the Tri-Valley through the Tri-Valley <br /> Haven's Domestic Violence Shelter and also Domestic Violence hotline, counseling and <br /> restraining order clinics. <br /> Page 9 of 12 <br />
