Men Against Domestic Violence, Inc. was founded in 2006 by Wilbur Ross III on a simple premise — that safe families require present men, and present men require the community to invest in them. Today, under Chief Operating Officer Messiah Williams, MADV is entering its next chapter.
We measure success not in press releases but in restored families, employed neighbors, graduated scholars, and safer blocks. Every dollar, every hour, every partner is accountable to that outcome.
Founded MADV in 2006 to confront the intersection of domestic violence, fatherlessness, and community disinvestment.
Leading the organization's next generation — scaling programs, infrastructure, and statewide partnerships.
