We strongly believe in our integrated approach to helping survivors of domestic violence. Lorraine had the courage to leave her abuser. She escaped to our Safe House but found herself in a situation in which she was forced to return to her abuser's home to avoid losing custody of her children. Luckily our in-house and trauma-informed Legal Services team was brought in to build evidence of the domestic abuse she was enduring.? They also connected Lorraine with our Community Services team to help her find an apartment of her own, further strengthening her case in court to retain custody of her children. Watch our attorney, Yusra, tell Lorraine's story. We are happy to have helped Lorraine improve her life and the lives of her children as a result of providing all the assistance she needed through a combination of Center for Hope & Safety's programs.

We are happy to be presenting Sharon Kozinn and Temple Emanuel of the Pascack Valley with our 2025 Community Partner Award at next month's Evening of Hope dinner. Although Sharon Kozinn has been involved with Center for Hope & Safety for over 30 years, her commitment deepened after she joined Temple Emanuel 14 years ago and got involved with the Community Service Committee. With the committee’s support, she launched a program to cook meals for residents of our Safe House. Sharon and a dedicated group of 100+ volunteers prepared and delivered meals on a bi-monthly basis until the pandemic forced them to pivot in 2020. The dinners morphed into collections based on conversations about what our clients need most.
