“Many resources to help clients while they are living at the shelter, including support groups, parenting classes, safety planning and domestic violence education. Case workers connect victims with the resources they need to implement a personal plan. Resources may include government agencies and other nonprofits that can provide them with legal, medical, housing, transportation, financial and other services necessary to rebuild their lives. Peace house also helps clients navigate and access available programs like the courts, police, social services, workforce services, housing agencies and others. Without peace house, many victims seeking a way out of the cycle of violence would lack the knowledge and confidence to take advantage of resources available in the community to help them. The peace house shelter was built in 1995 at an undisclosed location in a park city residential neighborhood to help ensure the safety of the families it houses. It is a state-licensed facility with licensed social workers and trained shelter advocates on site 24/7. It can accommodate up to 15 people (a combination of adults and their children) in five private rooms, each with a different sleeping configuration.”

“Members experiencing domestic violence and abuse. There were many welcome changes in prior years. In 2016 changes to the clinical program, included hiring an additional three part-time therapists, relocating to a separate officed space and providing intensive evidence based clinical training to our staff. In 2015 the clinical therapist role was expanded to a full-time position in the role as the clinical director, and therapy was provided to shelter as well as outreach clients for the firm time in peace house history.”

“Stages of an abusive relationship, but is uniquely positioned to offer assistance during the early stages of the cycle of abuse. The goals of these outreach services include enacting healthy changes that prevent further escalation of abuse and the need for more serious crisis intervention later. Just as for shelter residents, the outreach program provides a wide range of services including support groups, parenting classes, safety planning and domestic violence education. Outreach workers connect victims with important resources such as police, social services, government agencies and other nonprofits that can provide them with legal, medical, housing, transportation, financial and other services necessary for them to start their lives anew. Without the peace house outreach program, many victims in the community would lack the knowledge and confidence to take advantage of resources available in the community to help them break the cycle of violence in their lives.”

“The peace house volunteer program actively supports each of the service areas provided by peace house, including direct victim services, shelter property maintenance and enhancement, community awareness and fundraising events, grant-writing efforts, and on-going administrative, legal and technical support. The peace house volunteer program successfully attracts volunteers with diverse expertise, education and talents, and provides them mutually-beneficial opportunities to positively contribute to our broad range of services. The time, commitment and support provided by volunteers truly changes and saves lives. Volunteers have the opportunity to provide long-term support or simply one-time contributions. Peace house volunteers who provide direct client services are required to complete background checks and extensive training in the many issues associated with domestic violence and victim services. All peace house volunteers, whether in direct client contact or indirect assignments, are asked to complete a basic domestice violence education program and required to abide by confidentiality and code of conduct guidelines.”
