Mission and programs · 2024

• ADVOCACY AND HEALING: OUR SERVICES ARE INDIVIDUALIZED, RECOGNIZING THAT EVERY PERSON DESERVES CARE THAT RESONATES WITH THEIR UNIQUE NEEDS. THIS YEAR, AS ADVOCATES, WE MET SURVIVORS WHEREVER THEY NEEDED US, WHETHER ON THE HELPLINE, DURING SANE EXAMS AT THE HOSPITAL, IN COURTROOMS, AT OUR OFFICE, OR ALONGSIDE SCHOOL GUIDANCE COUNSELORS. WE HELD SPACE FOR SILENCE WHEN WORDS WERE HARD TO FIND AND OFFERED SUPPORT TO NAVIGATE BOTH IMMEDIATE AND FAR-REACHING IMPACTS. THIS YEAR ADVOCATES NAVIGATED COMPLEX SITUATIONS IN SCHOOLS AND WORKPLACES, AND IN INSTANCES WHERE WE SAW HOW THE EFFECTS OF HARM RIPPLE FAR THROUGH COMMUNITIES. BY TENDING TO BOTH INDIVIDUAL NEEDS AND SHARED GRIEF, WE MADE SPACE FOR HEALING THAT IS MUTUAL, MEANINGFUL, AND ROOTED IN INDIVIDUAL NEEDS. OUR ADVOCATES PROVIDED MORE THAN 2,000 DIRECT RESPONSES TO PEOPLE WHO HAD BEEN IMPACTED BY SEXUAL HARM. OUR HEALING WORK ALLOWS US TO APPROACH PEOPLE WITH A HOLISTIC LENS, NOT JUST A CRISIS RESPONSE. WHILE TRAUMA IS HEAVY, WE BELIEVE THAT HEALING DOESN'T HAVE TO BE. THROUGH SOMATIC WORKSHOPS, WE SUPPORTED PEOPLE IN RECONNECTING WITH THEIR BODIES AND LEARNING TO REGULATE THEIR NERVOUS SYSTEMS, NO MATTER HOW LONG AGO HARM OCCURRED. IN OUR ART-BASED HEALING GROUPS, WE PAINTED, WROTE, LAUGHED, CRIED, AND MADE SPACE FOR EMOTIONS THAT DON'T ALWAYS HAVE ROOM TO BREATHE. THESE SPACES ALLOWED PEOPLE TO HEAL ON THEIR OWN TERMS, THROUGH EXPRESSION, CONNECTION, AND JOY. OUR PROGRAMMING INCLUDED: A HEALING ART GROUP FOR ADULT SURVIVORS OF CHILDHOOD SEXUAL ABUSE, SOMATIC GROUP FOR YOUTH, MOSAIC X WRITERS FOR RECOVERY WORKSHOPS, LGBTQIA+ PRIDE CELEBRATION, TAKE BACK THE NIGHT, AND MORE.

• EDUCATION, TRAINING AND YOUTH EMPOWERMENT: EDUCATION IS CENTRAL TO OUR WORK. THIS YEAR, WE EMBRACED THE JOY AND HUMOR THAT COME WITH TEACHING YOUTH. THROUGH PLAYFUL ACTIVITIES AND OPEN CONVERSATIONS ABOUT SEX AND BODIES, WE CREATED SPACES WHERE YOUNG PEOPLE FELT SAFE ASKING AWKWARD, IMPORTANT QUESTIONS-AND LEFT FEELING MORE CONFIDENT AND INFORMED. WE ALSO WORKED WITH CAREGIVERS, EDUCATORS, AND WORKPLACES TO BUILD UNDERSTANDING OF TRAUMA, HEALTHY RELATIONSHIPS, AND THE ROLE EVERYONE PLAYS IN SHIFTING CULTURE. OUR TRAININGS HELPED PEOPLE RECOGNIZE HARM, RESPOND WITH CARE, AND FOSTER SUPPORTIVE ENVIRONMENTS WHERE EVERYONE FEELS SAFE, SEEN, AND SUPPORTED-EVEN WHEN HARM OCCURS. WHETHER IN CLASSROOMS OR WORKPLACES, WE SPARKED HONEST CONVERSATIONS, EXPLORED CULTURE, AND PROBLEM-SOLVED TOGETHER. BY BLENDING JOY, HONESTY, AND CARE, WE CREATED SPACES WHERE LEARNING THRIVES AND RESILIENCE GROWS- BUILDING LASTING CHANGE THROUGH EDUCATION THAT CONNECTS AND EMPOWERS. OUR YOUTH EMPOWERMENT WORK REMAINED ROOTED IN AFFIRMING YOUNG PEOPLE'S LEADERSHIP, CURIOSITY, AND CAPACITY TO CREATE CHANGE. THEIR IDEAS AND ACTIONS REMINDED US THAT PREVENTION DOESN'T LIVE IN A SILO; IT LIVES IN THE BOLD, EVERYDAY CHOICES YOUNG PEOPLE MAKE WHEN THEY ARE SUPPORTED, BELIEVED IN, AND HEARD. MORE THAN 1,900 YOUTH FROM 12 SCHOOLS PARTICIPATED IN PREVENTION PROGRAMMING. EIGHT STUDENT LEADERS FROM DIFFERENT SCHOOLS WORKED TOGETHER ON VIOLENCE PREVENTION IN THEIR SCHOOLS, AND 50 STUDENTS ACROSS WASHINGTON COUNTY PARTICIPATED IN SEXUAL VIOLENCE PREVENTION AND AWARENESS CLUBS. EMPOWERMENT PROGRAMMING INCLUDED TAKE BACK THE NIGHT PLANNING COMMITTEE, A YOUTH PEER ADVOCACY PROGRAM TRAINING, A BIPOC YOUTH GROUP, AND A CLUB CALLED, "THE CONVERSATION," CENTERED AROUND CREATING A CULTURE OF CONSENT WITHIN THE SCHOOL COMMUNITY. WE ALSO OFFERED CLASSROOM EDUCATION AROUND CONSENT, HEALTHY RELATIONSHIPS, BOUNDARIES, AND SEXUAL HEALTH-FROM EARLY CHILDHOOD THROUGH HIGH SCHOOL. PROGRAMS LIKE LET'S TALK SEX, AND MATTERING AND BELONGING HELPED YOUTH TO UNDERSTAND THEIR BODIES, COMMUNICATE CLEARLY, AND BUILD STRONG CONNECTIONS.

• CONNECTION: AT MOSAIC, WE KNOW THAT OUR WORK DOESN'T HAPPEN IN ISOLATION; PREVENTION AND HEALING BOTH RELY ON REAL RELATIONSHIPS. THIS YEAR, WE LEANED INTO CONNECTION NOT JUST AS A VALUE, BUT AS A PRACTICE. WE SHOWED UP FOR OUR COMMUNITY AND WELCOMED THEM IN, BUILDING TRUST, SHARING JOY, AND STRENGTHENING THE CONNECTIONS THAT MAKE ANTI-VIOLENCE WORK POSSIBLE AND CREATE SPACE FOR EVERYONE TO BE PART OF IT. WE TEAMED UP WITH OTHER 75 COMMUNITY PARTNERS, SUPPORTED THEIR EVENTS, AND OPENED OUR DOORS FOR GATHERINGS THAT BROUGHT PEOPLE TOGETHER IN CELEBRATION, SOLIDARITY, AND CARE. ALONG WITH THIS, 68 LOCAL BUSINESSES SUPPORTED US THIS YEAR BY SPONSORING, HOSTING OUR EVENTS, OR DONATING TO US. WHETHER WE WERE HOSTING A FUNDRAISER, SETTING UP A TABLE, OR PLANNING OUR OWN EVENTS, WE FOCUSED ON CREATING SPACES WHERE PEOPLE FELT SEEN, WELCOMED, AND VALUED-NOT JUST AS MEMBERS OF OUR COMMUNITY, BUT AS CO-CREATORS OF A WORLD WITH LESS HARM. EACH RELATIONSHIP ADDS STRENGTH TO THE WEB OF SUPPORT OUR WORK DEPENDS ON. THESE RELATIONSHIPS ARE THE FOUNDATION OF COMMUNITIES THAT CAN HOLD EACH OTHER WITH CARE BEYOND OUR PRESENCE. THROUGH OUR COLLABORATIONS WITH COMMUNITY PARTNERS, WE COHOSTED A PRODUCTION OF THE VAGINA MONOLOGUES, HOSTED A SUBSTANCE MISUSE PREVENTION EVENT CALLED IT'S ALMOST COCKTAIL HOUR AND ORGANIZED A CORNHOLE TOURNAMENT TO BRING COMMUNITY MEMBERS TOGETHER FOR A DAY OF FRIENDLY COMPETITION. THIS WORK IS ABOUT MORE THAN SHOWING UP; IT'S ABOUT BELONGING. BY DEEPENING OUR RELATIONSHIPS AND FINDING JOY IN THE MOMENTS WE SHARE, WE CONTINUE TO BUILD A COMMUNITY WHERE SUPPORT IS MUTUAL, HEALING IS COLLECTIVE, AND NO ONE HAS TO DO THIS WORK ALONE.

• FOLLOWING THE JULY 10, 2023 FLOODING THAT DEVASTATED CENTRAL VERMONT AND DAMAGED OUR PROPERTY ON COTTAGE STREET IN BARRE, WE CONTINUED TO PROVIDE SERVICES REMOTELY AS WELL AS IN SAFE PLACES ACROSS OUR COMMUNITY. OUR FORM 990 FOR FY24 DEMONSTRATES FUNDING THAT WAS SECURED THAT YEAR AND EARMARKED FOR SPENDING IN FY25. "LOSSES" REPORTED THIS YEAR WERE BUDGETED SPENDING OF FY24 PROGRAM-RESTRICTED FUNDS. MOSAIC'S EXPENSES THIS YEAR WERE NEARLY 7% LESS THAN BUDGETED DUE TO VARIOUS SAVINGS THROUGHOUT THE YEAR.
