About me: New Day Shelter is a non-profit agency that provides free confidential services to individuals experiencing Family Violence and/or Sexual Assault/Abuse. We also educate the community by making the public aware of the devastating effects Family Violence and Sexual Assault has on our society, the need for change, and that Violence is against the law, regardless of the relationship between the perpetrator and the victim. We believe each person should be treated with respect and has the right to live in peace and security. Our goal is to offer support, advocacy and encouragement, and to make options clear and available. It is every person's right and responsibility to make decisions for themselves. New Day Shelter staff is available for support, help and information at any time of the day or night.
