Honor the Women in your Life.

Children from mothers who survive domestic violence understand the tremendous strength it takes to reach a point of stability in their families. Their struggles and victories become part of the experience, love, and care that they inherit to their children. Each day of victory for them continues to bestow strong values of will and courage in their children. The Crisis Center of Northern New Mexico continues to support those mothers by providing the essential skills and education and give them the tools necessary to continue protecting the children they love and care for.

This mothers day we must always remember those women in our lives that have protected us from harm and suffering. Their will and strength to survive and continue will always be honored and supported.

We created the mothers day yearly event to honor those women who have given us care and love each day. This year we’ll have it at Anthony’s at the Delta on May 11th.

All proceeds will be dedicated to help and support all those mothers victims of Domestic Violence who are still struggling to keep themselves and their children safe. Call the Crisis Center of Northern New Mexico and start making a difference with your contribution.

Happy mothers day.

Strong Partnerships, Strong Families

The Crisis Center is committed to providing education on choices for families in our community. Raising children and providing a non violent environment in which they can grow in safety and security is the goal of every parent in our community. The Espanola Public Schools and Hispanic Communication Network are important partners in this effort of bring families the tools they need to support their efforts.

This week we all came together to work toward the goal. With expert media materials provided by HCN we were pleased to distribute the material with the help of the Espanola School District.

We are delighted to have had the opportunity to meet so many dedicated school professionals that share our vision for our community. We are also delighted to have been able to provide information that parents need to support their strong families and seek resources that may help them as they raise the next generation.

We look forward to our continuing partnership with the School District and the Community as we move forward in our efforts to education parents and partners in ways to provide healthy families and strong violence free communities.
