April is
Sexual Assault Awareness
Month
“A unique sense of loneliness.” is the phrase victims of sexual assault commonly use to describe the beginning of their journey from victim to survivor. Sexual assault goes beyond breaking laws for victims, the assault damages their feeling of connection to the world they understood and trusted. Positive support and patience from family, friends, spouses and other community members can greatly impact a victim’s healing process, bringing them closer to reconnecting with themselves and a life beyond being a victim.
This month, pledge you will help you be a support while upholding your loved one’s right to be safe and regain a sense of control of their life.

Established in January of 1983, New Day Shelter is a safe haven for victims of Domestic Abuse and Sexual Assault. We are a non-profit organization, which provides emergency housing and food to victims and their children. Beyond performing crisis intervention and support services, New Day Shelter is an important grassroots effort toward affecting the social change that is necessary to prevent and ultimately reduce family violence and sexual assault in the communities that we serve. We do this by providing an enhanced service provision; Self-Sufficiency Programming, Sexual Assault Intervention Program, Children's Programming, community education, training to professionals, and presentations to age specific (K-12) non-violence curriculum to classrooms in the area schools. Furthermore, New Day Shelter provides a culturally sensitive Native American component to all shelter programs and services. For more information, please see "Shelter Services" in this website.
