PROGRAM SERVICES
The Quileute Tribe's New Beginnings program provides advocacy services to those living on or near the Quileute and Hoh River Reservations who are, or have been, victims of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual violence, stalking or elder abuse as well as provides support to their family and friends.
If you have been victimized, if someone you love has been hurt, or if you have witnessed violence and abuse, you don't have to cope with your feelings and the situation alone. No one deserves to live with violence in any or all of its forms.
A victim advocate is available in La Push M-F from 8:00 A.M. to 4:00 P.M. and at the Hoh Reservation by appointment.
Contact the victim advocate at 374-5110 for additional information or assistance.
