Dear Friend,
I hope this message finds you safe and in good health.
The last few weeks and days have brought tremendous change as we adapt to the reality of COVID-19 in our community and around the world.
What has not changed is how grateful we are for you
– our donors, supporters, and friends – for caring about our mission to restore and empower women and girls who have been trafficked and exploited.
Here’s an update on how we are moving forward at New Friends New Life:
Moving Forward with Virtual Counseling
For the safety of our staff and the members we serve, NFNL transitioned to working remotely last week.
The most recent orders
from Dallas County now require most residents to stay at home through April 3.
Our dedicated program staff is conducting
virtual counseling sessions with adult members
, helping them stay on track with their counseling goals while addressing any additional trauma incurred as a result of this global crisis.
For our
Youth Resource Center
, the team has set up virtual hangouts for teen girls to connect with each other and their survivor mentors remotely through the YRC’s private social media accounts. We are committed to finding a way to stay connected to our women and girls, and they are just as committed to staying connected to us.
