SafeHouse Center is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization whose mission is to provide safety, support, advocacy and resources for survivors of sexual assault and domestic violence and their children, and to work relentlessly to change the systems and attitudes that allow this abuse to continue.
To the SafeHouse Center Community:
Christine Watson
On behalf of the Board of Directors, I am happy to inform you that after a process of several months that included the consideration of more than 40 applicants, we have unanimously voted to select SafeHouse Center’s new Executive Director.
Our search committee had some very qualified choices and recommended a professional who is well-known and highly-respected inside our organization and in the community we serve – Christine Watson.
As part of a career dedicated to supporting vulnerable populations, Christine has served for the past eight years as the Coordinator for the Response Team and Legal Advocacy Program as well as a member of the leadership team at SafeHouse. She has built a committed, collaborative, inclusive group and formed many relationships in the community.
Christine is committed to looking at the Executive Director position with a fresh lens and working toward any changes necessary for staff and within the community.
We appreciate the thorough search and selection process conducted by the search committee, under standards developed by an outside firm, the Andrews Group, including the input of the current staff. The entire Board looks forward to working with Christine in her new role as we create a solid future for the mission of the organization.
Sincerely,
Joyce Hunter
Board Chair
