October 2011 Dear Friends of The Advocates, Your support provided over 30 distinct programs to 4,372 people last year. The impact of your generosity is that nearly 100% of the people you supported reported a positive life change as result of their contact with The Advocates. Due to your donations, a boy stopped having nightmares and he and his mother for the first time feel safe. Due to your gifts, a 12 year old girl stopped being a bully, and a young woman who was sexual assaulted started the emotional healing process. Your kindness educated, prevented, and supported so many. Thank you.

Tricia Swartling Executive Director

Joy Kasputys President

giving teens someone to turn to . . .

When I woke up that morning I didnt remember what had happened. I was at someones house, didnt have my clothes on,

I was terrified.

MY MOM bLAMED ME; she said I was a slut. Some of

my friends didnt want to talk to me. My friend Mary told me to go see you. Thank you for helping me out and for not judging me. I now know

I was sexually assaulted, that it was not my fault,

and that I will have to do some work to heal.

helping women find strength . . .

YOU SAVED MY LIfE;

when I was sitting in my car in front of the

cliff ready to drive off because I was pregnant and alone, my abusive husband had left me for another woman, my family back home hated me for taking off and I thought nobody cared about me . . . but for some reason your words stuck in my mind. I could hear you telling me you cared; that there was hope after all. I am here now, 8 months pregnant, in shelter, and thanks to you, Im alive.

I am no longer a stranger to self-preservation and am able to stand my ground and say when

enough is enough.

providing shelter . . .

When I first arrived to the U.S., I was under the impression that my family would support me, take care of me. but I was wrong.

They were abusive, took my money,

and wouldnt give me my documents. I am so glad I came to shelter and had the chance to meet you all. You are now my family and you have changed my life.

I love being at The Advocates because 11 year old Girl

MY MOM ISNT SAD hERE.
