Supported Outside Agencies New Beginnings - A Women’s Crisis Center On behalf of New Beginnings – Without Violence and Abuse, I would like to thank the citizens of the Town of Meredith for their continued support. Your 2012 allocation of $1800.00 has enabled us to continue to provide 24-hour crisis intervention, long term support and assistance, and outreach and education to people whose lives have been affected by domestic and sexual violence and stalking in all of Belknap County. With so many streams of funding being reduced, your support plays a critical role in our continued service provision to Meredith and Belknap County. Our organization operates a full-time shelter with a food pantry; staffs a 24-hour crisis line; provides 24-hour advocacy at hospitals and police stations; provides court and social service advocacy; and offers non-judgmental support and advocacy on a one-toone basis as well as in peer support groups. New Beginnings has programming for children and teens who have witnessed and experienced violence, including resiliencybased programs. Though we serve a small county, the need for services is great. We were able to do a Primary Prevention Program for the whole freshman class. We had advocates in Belknap County courts each working day of this budget year. In the fiscal year 2011-2012, the agency served 785 people, resulting in 11,460 individual services. Some of these services were provided by our volunteers, who donated over 23,000 service hours. New Beginnings also plays a significant role in the greater community. We run outreach activities and offer education programs to businesses, clubs and groups. We also facilitate age-appropriate prevention programs for students in kindergarten through college, including topics such as conflict resolution, bullying, healthy relationships, and dating and sexual violence. We participate in many committees and commissions, including the Belknap County Family Violence Prevention Council, a task force made up of community members and professionals initiated by the Governor’s Commission to take a stand against domestic and sexual violence in our county, and the Belknap County Sexual Assault Resource team. We are 1 of 14 members of the NH Coalition Against Domestic and Sexual Violence, promoting statewide networking and resource sharing among domestic violence and sexual assault programs. The coalition is the evaluating body and administrator of state and federal contracts that provide some funding for member programs. Sincerely, Kathy Kathy Keller Executive Director New Beginnings – Without Violence and Abuse P.O.
