Mission Statement

New Horizons Shelter and Outreach Centers provide safety and services to adults and families who have experienced domestic violence, sexual assault, stalking and harassment so that they can make decisions about their lives in a supportive, nonjudgmental and empowering atmosphere.  We promote the concepts of non-violence and equality through intervention, prevention and education.

 Philosophy

New Horizons Shelter and Outreach Centers oppose all forms of dominance over others.  Our collaborative community effort is an integral part of a broader social justice movement.  We support the right of people of all ages, regardless of gender, sexual orientation, race, color, religion, national origin, social class or differing abilities to live without fear, abuse and violence.  We believe batterers must be held accountable for their actions and that systems must be responsible to the victim.
