The foundation established the Margaret Place initiative, partnering with the Union City, NJ Board of Education, the NHCAC, and Verizon, to donate $325,000 towards preventing domestic violence. Margaret’s Place purpose is to “provide students with a safe room at school where they can meet with a professional counselor trained in domestic violence intervention and prevention in order to address the student’s home situation and educate them to understand domestic violence’s impact on the community”.  Torre has also supported anti-domestic violence causes including RESPECT!, recording a PSA in 2008.
