Individual Empowerment

By:  Sandra Ziebold, Executive Director/CEO
Beacon of Hope Crisis Center

Individual empowerment is a process of development for each individual person. It involves developing skills and abilities and a more positive definition of ones self. 

Achieving individual empowerment is realized by having a better feeling about yourself, a sense of more self-respect and self-esteem.

If you want a simple mantra - Individual Empowerment means 'becoming powerful'. 

To become personally empowered...We must be able to answer...what are my personal values, what are my skills and goals... then do I want, really want, personal empowerment and am I motivated and prepared to adjust my behavior in order to achieve my goals.

If you or someone you know is in need of personal empowerment to move beyond circumstances caused by domestic violence into a fully realized state of independence and sustainability Beacon of Hope is here for you!

Beacon of Hope Crisis Center works directly with clients needing services for domestic violence and sexual assault. 

Many of our clients are not needing placement in a shelter and many do need placement in shelter.  We can help you get out of your immediate crisis.  We are not a shelter but can assist clients with emergency shelter placement and we provide a well-rounded grouping of services to help clients reach individual empowerment and goals. 

We also work collaboratively with domestic violence shelters and other agencies to assist their clients with services and programs to achieve the overall collective goal of self-sufficiency for survivors.
