Announcing
Our New Director!
Erica Staab started with us on June
16. She is a graduate of Faribault High School and has recently returned
to her home town after several years in South Carolina. She has 10 years
experience in the area of violence against women, most recently working
for the South Carolina Coalition Against Domestic Violence and Sexual
Assault.
Erica is excited to be with HOPE Center and looks
forward to meeting our supporters and partners!
We are currently accepting applications for our
Board of Directors, to be voted upon at the September board meeting.
This is a great opportunity to give your time and talents toward
making HOPE Center an even better organization, and to connect with
a lively and committed group of people. Terms are two years long and
include bi-monthly meetings, plus committee participation. If
interested, please call Erica or mail in an
application.

The mission of HOPE Center is to create zero
tolerance for sexual and domestic violence through
healing,
outreach,
prevention and education. Through innovative
programming, we offer direct support to victims of violence in
Rice County, collaborative support to other organizations that serve
victims, and educational support to the entire community.
Did you know we can turn your used cell phones into
cash for our programs?
Shelter
Alliance pays us for every phone we send to them.
So if you've got any old phones around, or have
been thinking about upgrading to a new phone, now's the time to
bring them in. We can accept used phones any time during business
hours.
Questions? See our Donate
page for more information about Shelter Alliance, or give us a call
