About Legacy of Men
In February of 2009, SafeHaven of Tarrant County held its inagural Legacy of Men Breakfast to engage and mobilize men to take a proactive role in ending domestic violence. SHTC honored Jason Witten with the organization’s first Legacy of Men Award for his work in speaking out about domestic violence and supporting domestic violence prevention programs. A tight end for the Dallas Cowboys, Jason started the SCORE Foundation which currently funds male mentoring programs in several domestic violence shelters across Texas, including SafeHaven. Funds raised at the breakfast support our work with young men to break the cycle before it begins.
