Expands access to technology, community awareness, and response to domestic violence.
HERMITAGE, Pa. & ERIE, Pa. - Nov. 8, 2023 - PRLog -- Pennsylvania-based technology development company, OhanaLink Technologies™, today announced their partnership with domestic violence agency, Safe Journey, the developers of PurpleOne™. PurpleOne is a comprehensive community response initiative that addresses domestic violence across the U.S. Through the partnership, OhanaLink Technologies will serve as the exclusive technology partner for PurpleOne integrating technology to centralize training, resources and tools into a single management and training solution. The centralization is designed to simplify and expand direct access to customized technology and specialized training programs for agencies, businesses, and individuals within communities.
The PurpleOne program was initiated in 2017 by Safe Journey, an Erie County, PA-based domestic violence services agency and the Rural Erie County Domestic Violence Task Force. Funded through the U.S. Department of Justice Office on Violence Against Women, the program was designed to empower victims and community members to take action against domestic violence.
"We are thrilled to announce this new strategic partnership with PurpleOne," stated Kara Wasser, Founder and CEO of OhanaLink Technologies. "As a mission-driven organization, we are continuously looking to raise awareness around the increasing need for secure technology that expands safe access to victims of domestic violence. This partnership will amplify that awareness while also bringing much needed resources to those in need," Wasser explained.
Through a collaboration with seven domestic violence agencies in Western Pennsylvania, the women-led platform technology company developed OhanaLink Purple, a safe and secure client interaction and engagement system that is transforming the way agencies and advocates assist victims/survivors of domestic abuse. OhanaLink Purple launched in 2022 and is being adopted by domestic violence agencies across the country.
According to Lori Palisin, Executive Director of Safe Journey and Founder and CEO of PurpleOne, "As a 25-year champion for domestic violence victims and survivors, I am grateful for the benefits that our partnership with OhanaLink Technologies and the OhanaLink Purple solution will offer communities, businesses and individuals." She continued, "By connecting training, education, awareness best practices together with technology, our organizations will have the necessary tools to make a considerable impact on the movement to fight domestic violence right in our communities."
Additional opportunities for the partnership include the inclusion of PurpleOne as a Resource Partner within the OhanaLink Purple app through a dedicated link, joint community outreach and education initiatives, and co-branded sales and marketing campaigns.
A Facebook live Turning Purple Partnership Launch event is scheduled for Monday, November 20th @3pm (EDT). For more information and to register for the event, visit www.ohanalink.com/purpleone.
