For more than 40 years, the Marjaree Mason Center (MMC) has offered safe housing and supportive services to victims of domestic violence in Fresno County. The Center was founded in 1979 after the murder of Marjaree Mason, a native of Easton. A graduate of Washington High School and Reedley College, Marjaree lived in Fresno for 31 years and was well known in the community. Currently, the Center is Fresno County's only dedicated provider of domestic violence shelter and support services, including education for victims and youth. The Marjaree Mason Center supports and empowers adults and their children affected by domestic violence, while striving to prevent and end the cycle of abuse through education and advocacy.
