What an amazing gift for St. Jude House!

We are kicking off the new year with a shout out to our friends and continued supporters at Toyota Of Merrillville 🚙

When they heard about the recent fire in our donation room they stepped up in a big way! We are so appreciative of your whole team and their endless kindness.

We believe in Christmas bells that chime for all to hear, filling hearts with peace on earth and drawing heaven near. Each magical moment of Christmas brings us closer to Christ. From green fir trees to the lights that surround them, every traditional detail hearkens to our memory that silent night of Nativity. As we celebrate the season, surrounded by shopping, stockings, and all things red and green reminds us to reflect on what the Christmas spirit means.
Merry Christmas

PRESS RELEASE 12.05.2023


Hope’s Voice Announces first state funded Sexual Assault Award



As of 1/1/2024 Hope’s Voice will expand to include the prevention of sexual violence in Knox and Daviess Counties while dually implementing a new position dedicated to sexual assault response. Upon award of the SAVAF dollars, managed by ICJI, Hope’s Voice will shift focus to being credentialed as a R**e Crisis Center in both counties over the next two years. The award for $269,000 over two years will be managed by newly named Project Manager, Misty McNeely, and Director of Operations at Hope’s Voice, Kelsey Carr. Carr and McNeely have served CFS and their communities as legal advocates, criminal justice experts, and credentialed prevention professionals for over four years. It is the intent of the funding to educate and promote violence prevention across Knox and Daviess counties with widespread information campaigns, evidence-based material creation, and information dissemination all with an eye for health equity development across the diversifying populations in Knox and Daviess counties. Kelsey Carr, a program designer by trade, created the widespread prevention interventions for the award after significant success in piloting the health promotion campaigns at North and South Knox schools for the last four years. Resources will be disseminated across Knox and Daviess counties throughout various outlets, all modeled from the CDC’s technical packages made to reduce violence in communities. As for the development of R**e Crisis Centers – Hope’s Voice intends to meet the standards as outlined by the Indiana Coalition to End Sexual Assault and Human Trafficking (ICESAHT) within the following year and update community members throughout the process as service deliverables improve. The funding allows for survivors of sexual assault to access housing resources, wraparound case management services, and assistance with mental health care. Since COVD-19 rates of intrapersonal violence and sexual assaults continue to increase in Indiana and across the country – all while the imperative call to reduce violence environments is increasingly had. Hope’s Voice aims to continue its’ steadfast work in serving its clients wholly and moving towards safer communities for all. If anyone is in need of services related to experiences including violence please reach out to Hope’s Voice 24/7 Hotline at 812-899-HOPE (4673).

St Jude House needs our help! A fire last week destroyed the intake and donation room!

Last week, a fire destroyed our intake room and donation room. But the mission of St. Jude House will carry on much like the quote states, "I survived because the fire inside me burned brighter than the fire around me." As the smoke clears we are assessing the damage and our needs as we have significant repairs ahead. Due to supporters like you, we have always provided our services at no cost. Please consider donating to St. Jude House for Giving Tuesday by clicking the donate button below. We are so grateful for your support of our mission to continue to provide comprehensive and compassionate services to survivors of domestic violence.

We spent our weekend with the members of Jeffersonville #1527. It was a great weekend of "fun"-raising! Even better, the Auxiliary sent us home with $5200 for our state project!!! AND we collected grant checks also. I cannot wait to surprise 1 of our recipients with some much needed $$$ before Christmas. Thank you all for the continued support 💛💙💛

It has been good to have the last 2 weekends home (aka being grounded). As much I was fighting it, I can tell I am still healing and my back reminds me.
