“There are still emotional challenges
saved my family.“
FISCAL YEAR 2009
FY09 was a year of economic uncertainty leaving victims of domestic violence especially vulnerable. The lack of
financial resources made it difficult for so many victims to leave abusive relationships.
Domestic violence is a public health issue that is preventable when a coordinated community response is set in
action. The Center’s staff and volunteers partner with social service agencies, law enforcement, hospitals, local
governments, schools and businesses. These essential collaborations form a safe haven in which survivors overcome
endangerment and fear as they move toward safety and independence.
Each year, the Center helps more than a thousand families in crisis, offering a range of programs and services
provided free of charge in order to lessen the barriers between victims and safety.
Our programs include:
• 24-hour crisis hotline – A trained advocate is available to take confidential calls 24/7. Volunteers and
advocates offer resources including crisis intervention, safety planning, emotional support and information
about domestic violence and restraining orders.
• Safety planning – Trained staff help clients develop an individualized plan to keep themselves and their
families safe while receiving services.
• Emergency shelter – In cases where it is no longer safe for a victim to stay at home, emergency domestic
violence shelter may be the best option. The Center may connect clients with a network of domestic violence
shelters across the state, providing housing advocacy and counseling.
MESSAGE FROM
THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
The work of the Jeanne Geiger Crisis Center changes lives. For some, our work saves lives. For others, our work
helps rebuild lives.
This past year presented us with many challenges: the economic crisis in the Commonwealth and across the
country; a greater demand for services during a time of diminishing resources; and victims in far greater need than
ever. But here is what we know – funding is critical but not more so than the work we are doing. While funds
cycle in and out, clients continue to stream through our doors.
Our mission is to empower members of our community to live free from fear, intimidation, violence or the threat
of abuse by providing support, advocacy and education. The mission addresses the needs of today while our
vision creates a culture that no longer tolerates domestic violence. Our aim is to provide programming that
addresses the needs of today’s victims and builds resilience to prevent the next generation of victims.
Last year we helped 1,022 victims – we experienced a 32% increase in the number of children seeking trauma
services. Violence can have a lifelong negative effect on a child. That is why we have designed a children’s
program that is innovative, research-based, and holistic in its approach. When we give all that we have to help a
child heal, we help shape a life that is healthy, whole and safe. We are also reducing the likelihood that he/she will
grow up to become a victim or perpetrator of domestic violence.
I thank you for your continued support of the Jeanne Geiger Crisis Center. Frankly, we are able to do all that we
do because of your generous support and dedication.
• Individual counseling – Confidential and free of charge, one-on-one counseling with an experienced and
qualified advocate is available.
• Economic Independence Program – Developed to assist individuals in attaining financial stability through a
series of workshops and groups, the program covers financial coaching, budgeting, self-esteem and other
related topics.
• Support groups – Victims of domestic violence can meet others in similar situations to share experiences,
gain support and learn about resources. Free childcare is available during group sessions.
• Legal representation – The Center provides assistance with family law issues through staff attorneys and pro
bono attorneys.
• Court Advocacy – A skilled legal advocate is available to support clients while obtaining a restraining order or
navigating the court system.
• Children’s Counseling and Support Group – Children need specialized guidance, support and counseling
to heal. The Crisis Center provides an ongoing support group for youngsters and teens that have been abused
or have witnessed abuse at home.
• Rapid Response Teams – The Center collaborates with local police departments in responding to crisis. The
Rapid Response Teams complement the work of area police departments while offering immediate support
to victims at the police station.
• High Risk Case Response Team – The team is composed of law enforcement, probation, batterer’s
intervention, hospital staff and domestic violence professionals. The team works collaboratively and meets
regularly to identify the most dangerous domestic violence cases in the community. With the belief that
domestic violence homicide is both predictable and preventable, this innovative team provides individualized
interventions to interrupt the cycle of escalating violence.
• Training – The Crisis Center provides High Risk Case Response training at local, statewide and national
venues for law enforcement and clinical professionals.
• Referral and Information – The Crisis Center provides referrals to outside resources if a victim requires
services it does not provide directly.

WE ARE PROUD
OF OUR EFFICIENCY
As a contributor to the Jeanne Geiger Crisis
Center, you can be proud of participating in an
organization that is working hard to end family
violence in the communities of Amesbury,
Georgetown, Groveland, Merrimac, Newbury,
Newburyport, Rowley, Salisbury and West
Newbury.
It costs the Jeanne Geiger Crisis Center $28,000
each week to provide programs and services.
In order to meet the demand for services, we
must raise 52% of our budget via private and
corporate donations and grants. Our fundraising
initiatives are efficient – for every eighteen
cents we spend, we raise one dollar.
The majority of Jeanne Geiger Crisis Center’s
resources directly benefit clients – adults and
children who live in the communities we serve.
Only five cents out of every dollar raised supports
administrative and overhead expenses. We are
grateful for those who support the Center with
contributions as well as those who volunteer their
time and energy.
“I was really impressed by the level of experience and
It was a great training .“
