A few months ago, we had to clear our parking lot because we were repaving it. In those few days, I saw a neat visual of what our shelter would look like if no one else ever needed our services…an empty parking lot. And I was inspired. Our work will continue until we work ourselves out of a job. That’s the dream, right?

With this month being Domestic Violence Awareness and Prevention Month, I want to invite you to join us in that dream. We have many events this month where you can get involved to help us end domestic violence. Will you join us?

With gratitude,


Cassie Mecklenburg
Executive Director
