GRACE SMITH HOUSE, INC. PROVIDES EMERGENCY FOOD AND SHELTER FOR WOMEN AND CHILDREN WHO HAVE EXPERIENCED DOMESTIC VIOLENCE, WHICH INCLUDES BUT IS NOT LIMITED TO PHYSICAL, VERBAL, SEXUAL, FINANCIAL AND/OR EMOTIONAL ABUSE. IN THE FISCAL YEAR 2010, THE SHELTER FIELDED HOTLINE CALLS FROM 1,378 VICTIMS OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE. CALL VOLUME WAS UP 57% FROM THE PRIOR YEAR. THE PROGRAM PROVIDED EMERGENCY SHELTER TO 92 WOMEN AND 64 CHILDREN. THE AVERAGE LENGTH OF STAY FOR RESIDENTS WAS 38.8 DAYS. THE PROGRAM PROVIDES SERVICES TO INDIVIDUALS REGARDLESS OF RACIAL, ETHNIC, RELIGIOUS, SOCIO-ECONOMIC STATUS OR ABILITY TO PAY.DOMESTIC VIOLENCE SHELTERS ENSURE THAT THE BASIC NEEDS OF WOMEN AND FAMILIES IN THE EARLY STAGES OF LEAVING AN ABUSIVE DOMESTIC PARTNER ARE MET. THE GRACE SMITH HOUSE PROVIDES EMERGENCY SHELTER, FOOD, LAUNDRY FACILITIES, BATHROOMS, KITCHENS AND COMMUNITY ROOMS. CLOTHING AND TOILETRIES ARE PROVIDED FOR FAMILIES WHO ARRIVE WITH FEW OR NO POSSESSIONS. THE SHELTER IS STAFFED 24 HOURS A DAY, SEVEN DAYS A WEEK. IN-HOUSE SUPPORT GROUPS AVAILABLE 4 DAYS A WEEK. AN INDIVIDUAL COUNSELOR IS ASSIGNED TO EACH WOMAN TO PROVIDE ONGOING EMOTIONAL SUPPORT AND ADVOCACY FOR THEM WITH THE LEGAL SYSTEM, DEPARTMENT OF SOCIAL SERVICES, MEDICAL OR MENTAL HEALTH PROVIDERS, ETC. THE GRACE SMITH HOUSE EMPLOYS A BILINGUAL COUNSELOR TO ASSIST WOMEN WHO ARE EXCLUSIVELY SPANISH SPEAKING. AN IN-HOUSE CASE MANAGER ASSISTS RESIDENTS WITH OBTAINING PUBLIC ASSISTANCE, HOUSING, AND EMPLOYMENT. YOUTH COUNSELORS ADDRESS BASIC NEEDS FROM THE CHILDREN'S PERSPECTIVE, WITH AN EMPHASIS ON MEETING CHILDREN'S NEEDS FOR SAFETY AND PROTECTION. IN THE FISCAL YEAR 2010, SHELTER RESIDENTS HAD MANY ACCOMPLISHMENTS. EIGHTY-EIGHT PERCENT (88%) OF ALL WOMEN ENTERING THE PROGRAM COMPLETED PERSONAL SAFETY PLANS DURING THEIR SHELTER STAY. ALMOST HALF OF ALL RESIDENTS WERE ABLE TO FIND INDEPENDENT, SAFE HOUSING TO TRANSITION TO AFTER THEIR SHELTER STAY. DESPITE THE DIFFICULT ECONOMIC TIMES, 15% OF THE RESIDENTS WERE ABLE TO OBTAIN EMPLOYMENT. SEVENTY FIVE PERCENT OF THE RESIDENTS LEFT THE SHELTER WITH ACTIVE OR PENDING PUBLIC ASSISTANCE CASES. ABOUT ONE-THIRD OF ALL WOMEN OBTAINED LEGAL SERVICES DURING THEIR STAY, ALLOWING THEM TO PROCURE ORDERS OF PROTECTION, CUSTODY AND DIVORCE SETTLEMENTS. ALMOST TWO THIRDS OF ALL RESIDENTS OBTAINED MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES, GARNERING ONGOING SUPPORT AS THEY REBUILD THEIR LIVES FOLLOWING THE TRAUMA OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE. IN 2010, OUR ONSITE SHELTERS, APARTMENTS AND SATELLITE SERVICES WERE SUPPORTED FINANCIALLY THROUGH THE FOLLOWING GRANTS AND DONATIONS:BOARD FUNDRAISING: ANNUAL AUCTION, ANNUAL GALA, AND A SUMMER EVENT.GENERAL INDIVIDUAL AND ORGANIZATIONAL DONATIONS BROUGHT IN THROUGH OUR WEB SITE, BOARD AND STAFF SOLICITATIONS AND THE LONG-STANDING PUBLIC RELATIONS RELATIONSHIPS THAT HAVE BEEN FOSTERED OVER THREE DECADES. IN 2010 THESE RESOURCES ACCOUNTED FOR $330,042GOVERNMENT SUPPORT:GRACE SMITH HOUSE HAS A NYS CONTRACT FOR A PER DIEM RATE, PAID THROUGH THE COUNTIES OF RESIDENCE OF OUR CLIENTS. IT IS CALCULATED ANNUALLY. IN 2010 THIS RATE WAS $102.92 AND ACCOUNTED FOR $817,059 IN INCOME.HUD PROVIDES GRANTS FOR SUPPORTIVE SERVICES AND OPERATIONS FOR THE APARTMENTS WE HAVE AT OUR MAIN FACILITY, BROOKHAVEN, AND FOR OUR NORTHEAST PER DIEM SHELTER. BOTH THE RESIDENTIAL AND NON-RESIDENTIAL PROGRAMS RECEIVE SUPPORT FROM THE DUTCHESS COUNTY YOUTH BUREAU; THE FEDERAL PREVENTION OF VIOLENCE GRANT; THE HUNGER PREVENTION AND NUTRITION ASSISTANCE PROGRAM; THE CITY OF POUGHKEEPSIE COMMUNITY BLOCK GRANT AND A SMALL STIPEND FROM FEMA.FUNDS FROM THESE SOURCES AMOUNTED TO $567,644 IN 2010.

BROOKHAVEN PROVIDES HOUSING TO VICTIMS OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE AND THEIR CHILDREN ALONG WITH A COMPREHENSIVE ARRAY OF SUPPORTIVE SERVICES THROUGH OUR ON SITE FOLLOW-UP PROGRAM. WE FEEL THAT OUR TENANTS WILL ALSO BENEFIT FROM THE FAMILY SELF SUFFICIENCY PROGRAM OFFERED BY RURAL OPPORTUNITIES. GRACE SMITH HOUSE (GSH) HAS A LONG HISTORY OF WORKING WITH SECTION 8 PROGRAM TO MAKE A CREATIVE RESPONSE TO THE PROBLEMS POSED BY DOMESTIC VIOLENCE. WE ARE REQUESTING THESE FUNDS SO THAT WOMEN AND CHILDREN WHO LIVE AT BROOKHAVEN WILL HAVE THE INCOME AND PROGRAM SUPPORT NECESSARY TO ESTABLISH THEMSELVES AWAY FROM THEIR ABUSERS AND RE-CREATE LIVES FREE OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE."AN OPEN DOOR"IN 1981 A CONCERNED GROUP OF INDIVIDUALS RECOGNIZED THAT DOMESTIC VIOLENCE (DV) WAS A COMMUNITY PROBLEM. DETERMINED TO AID THESE WOMEN AND CHILDREN WHO LIVED IN CONSTANT FEAR, LOCAL RESIDENTS DECIDED TO CREATE SOLUTIONS. THE GOAL OF THESE CARING PIONEERS WAS TO PROVIDE SAFETY AND PROTECTION FOR BATTERED WOMEN AND THEIR CHILDREN - AND GRACE SMITH WAS BORN.A LARGE VICTORIAN HOUSE LOCATED IN POUGHKEEPSIE WAS CONVERTED INTO A SHELTER PROVIDING BATTERED VICTIMS WITH BASIC SERVICES SUCH AS PROTECTION AND COUNSELING. HOWEVER, IT BECAME CLEAR THAT THE JOURNEY TOWARD REACHING A VIOLENCE-FREE ENVIRONMENT WENT BEYOND TEMPORARY SHELTER.AFTER LEAVING GSH MANY WOMEN CONTINUED TO STRUGGLE WITH ISSUES SUCH AS SAFETY AND POVERTY. THE BOARD WAS READY TO RESPOND AND SECOND STAGE HOUSING WAS PROVIDED. TWO DILAPIDATED BUILDINGS IN POUGHKEEPSIE WERE TRANSFORMED INTO 15 APARTMENTS CALLED "BROOKHAVEN", A PROJECT AMONG THE FIRST OF ITS KIND IN NY.WOMEN WHO WERE PREVIOUSLY FACED WITH CHOOSING BETWEEN RETURNING TO AN ABUSIVE PARTNER OR RENTING A TINY UNSAFE APARTMENT WERE NOW OFFERED A NEW OPTION - AN AFFORDABLE, SAFE RESIDENCE WITH ADVOCACY AND REFERRAL SERVICES AS WELL AS EMOTIONAL SUPPORT.TODAY'S PROGRAMS AT GSH CLEARLY DISPLAY THE ORGANIZATION'S COMMITMENT TO ENDING THE BRUTAL CYCLE OF VIOLENCE. THROUGHOUT THE PAST TWO DECADES, SUPPORTERS OF GSH HAVE CONTINUALLY GONE BEYOND PROVIDING BATTERED WOMEN WITH FUNDAMENTAL SERVICES. THEIR MISSION OF ENABLING WOMEN TO LIVE FREE OF VIOLENCE HAS EVOLVED INTO A MISSION THAT INCLUDES FOR MORE THAN SIMPLE SAFETY AND PROTECTION.THE NON-RESIDENTIAL PROGRAMTHE COMPREHENSIVE NON-RESIDENTIAL PROGRAM (NRP) HAS DEVELOPED SINCE 1983 FROM A ONE-PERSON PART-TIME PROGRAM TO ITS CURRENT SCOPE AND SIZE. IT CONTINUES TO DEVELOP TO MEET THE COMPLEX NEEDS OF THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN ABUSED IN THEIR HOMES AND ARE HOMELESS. THE COMPONENTS OF THE NRP ARE DESIGNED TO ASSIST EACH INDIVIDUAL AND FAMILY PROGRESS TOWARD NON-VIOLENCE, SELF-SUFFICIENCY AND PERMANENCY IN HOUSING. THEY INCLUDE COUNSELING, COURT ADVOCACY AND REFERRALS WITHIN THE COMMUNITY, SUPPORT GROUPS AND CHILDREN'S GROUPS.IN 1995 A LATINA PROGRAM WAS ESTABLISHED WITHIN THE NRP TO ASSIST SPANISH SPEAKING INDIVIDUALS.GSH THEN DEVELOPED A DOMESTIC VIOLENCE LIAISON TO WORK WITH THE DEPARTMENT OF SOCIAL SERVICES TO REFINE ITS RESPONSE TO CHILD PROTECTIVE SERVICES REPORTS WHERE ABUSE WAS SUSPECTED.IN 2007, WITH HELP FROM A DYSON FOUNDATION GRANT, WE WERE ABLE TO HIRE A FULL TIME YOUTH COORDINATOR AT BROOKHAVEN TO ADDRESS CHILDREN'S NEEDS FOR SOCIAL AND EMOTIONAL SUPPORT.BROOKHAVEN WAS ESTABLISHED TO ADDRESS THE PRE-REQUISITES FOR ATTENDING SCHOOL OR MAINTAINING EMPLOYMENT SUCCESSFULLY: SAFETY, DECENT HOUSING, EMOTIONAL STABILITY AND THE COMPLETION OF TIME-CONSUMING COURT PROCESSES. DISTURBANCES IN THESE AREAS PERPETUATE THE CYCLE OF VIOLENCE AND HOMELESSNESS FOR ABUSED WOMEN. STAFF LEARNED EARLY THAT FAMILIES EMERGING FROM THE SHELTER PROGRAMS AT GSH NEEDED SAFE, AFFORDABLE HOUSING AND SUPPORT SERVICES TO BREAK THE DESTRUCTIVE CYCLE.FOR MANY YEARS GSH HAS WORKED WITH PATHSTONE, INC. TO PROVIDE APARTMENTS TO PEOPLE WHO LIVE IN BUILDING A. COMPLETED IN 1988 IT IS COMPRISED OF 12 GARDEN-STYLE WALK-UP APARTMENTS ON THREE FLOORS. THERE ARE TWO STUDIOS, FOUR 1-BEDROOM APARTMENTS, FOUR 2-BEDROOM APARTMENTS AND TWO 3-BEDROOM APARTMENTS. HEAT, HOT WATER, ELECTRICITY AND GARBAGE REMOVAL ARE ALL INCLUDED IN THE RENT. THE TENANTS MUST MAKE THEIR OWN ARRANGEMENTS FOR CABLE TV AND TELEPHONES. TENANTS EACH APPLY TO SECTION 8 ON THEIR OWN AND ASSISTANCE WILL ENABLE THEM TO LIVE IN OUR APARTMENTS AND HAVE A SMALL AMOUNT OF INCOME. ALL RESIDENTS OF BROOKHAVEN ARE REQUIRED TO TAKE PART IN THE NRP BY AGREEING TO ATTEND TENANTS MEETINGS AND SUPPORT GROUPS WHICH ARE HELD AT A MINIMUM OF TWICE A MONTH. ISSUES SUCH AS SAFETY PLANNING, GOAL-SETTING, EMOTIONAL SUPPORT, CHILDCARE AND PARENTING ISSUES, SUBSTANCE ABUSE ISSUES AND CAREER PLANNING ARE OFTEN ADDRESSED. AN ADDITIONAL 3 APARTMENTS WERE ADDED TO BUILDING B.SINCE BROOKHAVEN OPENED ITS DOORS, IT HAS SERVED 192 WOMEN AND 350 CHILDREN. IN 2010 THERE WERE 19 WOMEN AND 32 CHILDREN IN RESIDENCE. FAMILIES AT BROOKHAVEN ARE USUALLY AT THE PUBLIC ASSISTANCE INCOME LEVEL.
