With a mission to look beyond profits and the bottom line, Alliance Security views building stronger communities as an extension of its responsibility to help better protect families. To that end, the Cranston, RI-based integration firm fosters long-term relationships with non-profits focused in three core areas: ending and preventing domestic violence; bridging the opportunity gap for urban youth; and assisting low-income families.

Employees are involved in all facets of Alliance Security’s non-profit partnerships, including volunteering at organisation and community events, and supporting families in need by purchasing, wrapping and delivering toys and clothes to more than 50 children each December.

Perhaps the most significant impact Alliance Security has had on its community is through its efforts in the area of domestic violence. Recognising the seriousness of domestic violence, the company offers free alarm systems and monitoring to victims through Friends of RICADV, a programme the company started to support non-profit Rhode Island Coalition Against Domestic Violence. To date, the programme has provided more than 55 domestic violence victims statewide with the added security and peace of mind these systems deliver. The financial and personnel support Alliance Security has offered have helped elevate RICADV’s ability to achieve its mission of supporting and enhancing the work of its member agencies and providing leadership on the issue of domestic violence.
