A Bright 2012 for Safe Places

This is the Tenth Anniversary Year for Safe Places, and it is truly a milestone for us. You will find us celebrating all year, and especially on our specific anniversary date - December 4, 2012.

New happenings are occurring every day including adding Nicolas Mayerhoeffer to our staff as Director of Development. You will be hearing a great deal from him and about him in the days to come.

Four new members have been added to the Safe Places Board of Directors and the leadership team that is now in place is nothing short of amazing. Please welcome to our Board Sheriff Doc Holladay, Maria Reynolds-Diaz, Dale Sharp and Detective Crystal Haskins.

An active development committee is working hard to ensure long-term sustainability and vital financial health for Safe Places.

The 2012 Cinderella Ball and Cinderella Princess Leadership Program will be better than ever this year and will include an expansion into El Dorado.

The best news of all is that these developments will continue to enhance our services for victims of violence and abuse, creating a safe place for children and families harmed by violence. And that's who we are and what we do! Our staff has heart . . . a heart for every child, every woman and man, every family that has been devastated by violence. And that is our constant focus and vision - a world without violence!
