Marjaree Mason Center (MMC) is the only dedicated domestic violence service provider in Fresno County, offering comprehensive safe housing, crisis response, and supportive services to survivors and their families. MMC used NMTC financing to transform a vacant 37,680 sq. ft. former school into the Marjaree Mason Center Isnardi Foundation Building, a centralized hub designed to expand critical services for survivors of domestic violence.

The building includes a 24/7 crisis drop-in and call center, a health clinic, dedicated counseling and therapy spaces, a children's enrichment center, and a financial and career education training facility. By consolidating its non-residential services under one roof, MMC enhances its ability to deliver coordinated, wraparound support, including legal advocacy, mental health services, job training, and housing assistance, ensuring that survivors have the resources they need to achieve long-term stability and independence.
