Dear Friends,
After years of being silenced, isolated and afraid, the first time a woman shares her story with a
hotline counselor is a powerful moment. It may be the first time she has truly been heard and believed, and marks the beginning of a journey to re-discover her voice.
Over the last year, we have begun a writing project to gather the stories of those who come to us –
to give them a way to find their voice and share their story. For our clients who are in the middle of
their struggle, reading about the courage and the challenges of others who have walked the same
path strengthens their resolve. The stories have also touched the hearts of the wider community.
Family Shelter’s role is to ensure that these voices are heard – in the communities where we live
and in the systems that respond to crises. Our 35th anniversary created several opportunities to
share our clients’ stories. Our art exhibit, “Behind Closed Doors,” was installed in over 25 locations
throughout DuPage County. The artwork and artists’ statements are powerful reminders of both
the pain endured, as well as the healing journey.
We made significant strides in bringing these voices to the systems in our communities. Our Health
Care Collaborative has representatives from hospitals and health care providers who join together
for training and support on screening all patients for domestic violence. Our Spiritual Care project
brings together leaders in the faith community to ensure that victims receive help and support in
that context. The PEACE program reaches out to schools and colleges to raise awareness and galvanize students in the effort to stop dating violence.
We will continue our efforts to give voice to those who have been silenced. We are so grateful for
all those named in this report, as well as others who have helped in countless ways to make our
voices heard.

Trauma-Informed Care
Over the past year, we have continued to increase our commitment to trauma-informed care.
By focusing on how our clients’ traumatic experiences have impacted them, we are working to
ensure that all interactions are safe and contribute to the healing process.
During this past fiscal year, Family Shelter Service staff revised and launched a new set of values
based on the commitments of the Sanctuary Model of trauma-informed care that we have begun
to embed into our agency culture: Nonviolence, Ethical Communication, Life Long Learning,
Embracing Diversity, Collaboration, Creativity and Innovation, Social Justice and Compassion.
Counseling Services Program
The Counseling Services Program underwent a significant restructure last year that increases our
concentration on clinical support while maintaining a strong focus on program development.
Program staff has begun to think strategically about our provision of counseling services and how
to best serve survivors of domestic violence in the context of trauma-informed care. We launched
a drop-in group called Connections last year to offer immediate access to beneficial resources for
those clients who are on a waiting list for other services. The group has a different topic every
week and has hosted speakers from other agencies in the area.
Prevention Education And
Community Engagement Project (Peace)
This fiscal year, our PEACE Project moved out of the umbrella of Community Advocacy and became
a stand-alone department. We expanded our Prevention Educator position from 20 hours to 40
hours in order to increase the number of youth and young adults impacted by our curriculum. Our
team is currently collaborating with North Central College in the development of a campus-wide
violence against women prevention program named “Green Dot.” North Central College will be
only the second college in Illinois to incorporate the nationally acclaimed “Green Dot” prevention
program. We offered four 48-hour trainings during the fiscal year educating approximately 90
volunteers and community professionals.
Economic Empowerment
In October 2011 Family Shelter’s Career Club was chosen as a “best practice” and we were awarded
a grant to serve as a consultant to two other Domestic Violence agencies in developing their
own Career Club. Our Career Club curriculum includes six hours of Financial Literacy training as
part of an intensive six-week program. We served 30 clients with this program and 40% found
employment within six months of services.
35th Anniversary Year
Family Shelter Service turned 35 years old in 2011 and we marked this milestone in some unique
ways. Behind Closed Doors, an exhibit of original artwork, toured businesses, faith communities,
and civic organizations throughout DuPage County during the year. The artists featured in this
exhibit answered our call for artworks that symbolize the tribulations endured by victims of
domestic violence, as well as the triumphs of beginning a new life free of abuse. We launched
Funding a Safer Tomorrow, our 35th anniversary fundraising initiative with an eye to sustaining
our services into the future. With the support of generous donors, we raised three-year pledges
totaling $565,000.00. Finally, we held a joyous celebration for all of our loyal supporters and staff
with Harvest of Hope, a wine and food tasting festival held in the beautiful Peabody mansion.
Children’s Program helps children find
ways to cope with the violence in their
homes.
Counseling helps victims cope with the
effects of domestic violence.
Court Advocacy provides support
and information about legal remedies
available for victims’ protection.
Hotline provides access to information
and services 24 hours a day.
Intermediate Housing offers extended
shelter stays for those moving toward
self-sufficiency.
Illinois Health Cares collaborates with
local hospitals and health care providers
to increase the health system’s response to
domestic violence victims.
Latino Program focuses on providing
culturally sensitive services to Latina
victims.
PEACE (Prevention Education and
Community Engagement) increases
the protective factors against domestic
violence by engaging the community in
education about this devastating issue.
Shelter offers a safe haven to victims of
domestic violence and their children.
Support Groups break down the
isolation surrounding victims through
support and shared experience.
Victim Advocacy follows up on every
police-reported incident of domestic
abuse in DuPage County to check on
victim safety and to provide referral
information.
Volunteer Program recruits, trains
and places volunteers in appropriate and
rewarding positions.
Safe Pets Program provides for the
short-term care of pets while victims are
in shelter.

These powerful words, written by a Family Shelter client, offer a glimpse of the horrors of domestic
abuse—in one short paragraph. But the reader is not
the only one who is strongly affected.
Time and again expressive writing has been proven
to have a transformative effect on the writer as well.
In clinical and non-clinical studies, writing about traumatic, stressful or emotional events has been found to
result in improved physical and psychological health.
Family Shelter uses the power of the written word to
help clients on their healing journey and has increasingly added new tools that support this powerful modality.
Our new story project blog (www.ourstoryproject.org)
enables individuals to share their narratives of struggle
and resilience. Many of these stories are the product
of writing workshops for clients held at our Downers
Grove Shelter and Community Counseling facility this
past year. There, clients were able to put down their
stories, poems, memories, hopes and dreams in a safe
and comforting environment -- helping them to process their experience and bring it to light.
To support both our clients and others on their writing journey, Family Shelter, working with Carolyn B.
Healy, has published two journals designed to help
individuals share their stories using thought-provoking prompts, such as:
“My Journal My Voice” is a personal journal designed to make users hear their voice in a whole new way. “Our
Journal Our Voices” was created to be used in a shared setting, such as a support group, a waiting room, a book
club or any community of friends.

In addition to the cathartic effect of writing, this form
of expression helps clients impose their own meanings and solutions on their experiences; it enables
victims of violence to confront the truth of what has
happened to them, thus weakening the trauma of
keeping it a secret from friends and loved ones. A
woman who may be paralyzed and unable to move
forward by hiding or denying the violence in her life,
learns to trust again by talking openly about her story
and making connections with others. And even if she
decides not to share her work, she will still reap the
therapeutic benefits of writing.
peers and their community, as they widen their circle
of trust in a manner that is safe, secure and on their
own terms.
Our counselors have testified to the powerful impact
these writing sessions have had on our clients, enabling them to understand and share their stories in
a way that asserts their ownership over their own life
experiences.
We anticipate that expressive writing therapy will
continue to have a significant impact on our current
and future service delivery to clients by providing an
opportunity for reflection, self-agency and articulaResearch reveals that when people write about troution of experience. This can occur both in group sesbling events, they are less prone to dwell on them.
