Safe Haven: Inside Tri-County FJC’s Emergency Shelter Program

Purpose: Showcase your emergency shelter and its role in saving lives.
Structure:

1. Introduction
   • The critical need for emergency housing in rural NM, where shelters are scarce.
2. A Day at the Shelter
   • Safety First: Confidential location, 24/7 security, and intake process.
   • Holistic Care: Meals, clothing, counseling, and school enrollment support for children.
   • Transition Planning: Helping survivors secure long-term housing and jobs.
3. Voices from the Shelter
   • Anonymous quotes:
     • “The shelter gave my kids a chance to just be kids again.”
     • “I didn’t know kindness like this existed.”
4. How the Shelter Runs
   • Costs: Utilities, food, and security for a 10-bed facility.
   • Volunteer roles: Cook meals, tutor children, or donate hygiene kits.
5. Urgent Needs
   • $50 provides a night of safety for one survivor.
   • Local businesses: Sponsor a month’s worth of groceries.
