Family Crisis Center, by the numbers:
297- the number of survivors and children that were provided a safe, healing place to stay.
9,452- the number of nights of shelter that were provided to those in need.
2,570- the number of women, children, and men who received counseling in our program to help break the cycle of abuse in their lives.
1,136- the number of crisis hotline calls answered; providing immediate safety and compassion to those in need.
4,427- the number of community members who were educated on the topic of domestic violence and teen dating violence.
Without a doubt, we could not have done this without the generosity and support of the community. The funds from the Roses in Winter Ball allow us to continue to focus our other funds on providing these direct services to families in crisis.
