Olive Crest

Olive Crest is very clear on how to Stop Child Abuse!

After Dr. Donald and Lois Verleur provided a home for four teenage girls, they became inspired by the olive tree in the front yard, and the idea of a family crest. Olive Crest, a name symbolizing “peaceful family,” was born. Olive Crest is a leader in preventing child abuse, serving nearly 5300 children and families through California, Nevada, and the Pacific Northwest.
