Criticism Against NCADV
There have been multiple instances of criticism regarding the tactics and beliefs of the NCADV. Between the years of 1985 and 1986, the NCADV was in the works of requesting and receiving a two-year grant from the United States Department of Justice which would serve to provide domestic violence information and training across the nation. During the time, groups opposing the tactics of the NCADV came out, including the, accusing the organization of being Pro-Lesbian and Anti-Family. The grant was never issued, and the NCADV went into an agreement with the Department of Justice which said that the Department of Justice would monitor and pre-approve any actions by the organization. After one year this agreement was ended by NCADV due to the tense relationship between the two parties.

Famous quotes containing the word criticism:
“However intense my experience, I am conscious of the presence and criticism of a part of me, which, as it were, is not a part of me, but a spectator, sharing no experience, but taking note of it, and that is no more I than it is you. When the play, it may be the tragedy, of life is over, the spectator goes his way. It was a kind of fiction, a work of the imagination only, so far as he was concerned.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
