Project Anchor- adolescent victims of sexual abuse

Hello again! Fair Haven RCC continues to thrive with bustling days and hospital calls that remind us of the urgent need for our work. Since we haven't checked in since the start of the new year, I want to share a heartfelt glimpse of how we are doing so far. Since January 1, 2025, we have passionately served 49 young individuals between the ages of 12 and 18, providing everything from personal counseling to judicial support and empowering peer groups. We've responded to 6 teens under 18 for forensic exams at our local hospitals, knowing how critical these moments are. Additionally, we've worked closely with 20 clients navigating judicial advocacy, standing firm by their side. The demand for our services keeps growing, with new intakes for teens and their families pouring in—and we expect these numbers to rise even more during the busy summer months.

Over the past few weeks, we've been blessed with many opportunities to collaborate deeply with our community. Student volunteers generously helped us sort and distribute clothing donations for our adolescent clients—an act of kindness that made a real difference. Our partner school also donated snacks, offering comfort and support during our group sessions. We are truly grateful for the unwavering support and faith our community places in us—it fuels our passion to keep going and to serve these young lives with all our hearts.

Fair Haven RCC deeply depends on the unwavering support of our donors and community allies. We honestly could not accomplish this important work without you! In the picture, you can see our cherished “calming corner,” filled with items generously sponsored or brought in by our donors. Our clients turn to this peaceful space to help soothe their nervous systems as they bravely share their stories of adversity. Your donations truly make a difference, helping us create a safe and nurturing environment where all our clients can heal and find hope.
