annual report - mutual ground
TRANSCRIPT
If you’ve heard of Mutual Ground, you probably understand that our agency provides education, awareness and life-changing services that empower individuals, families and the community to end the
cycle of domestic and sexual violence. But what does that mean? To a lot of people, what that means
is that we operate a domestic violence shelter. We do that, but, we also do so much more.
This past year we have been on a mission to raise awareness that Mutual Ground is much more than a
shelter. So, in this report I want to share with you some things we do that you may not know!
For instance…
We operate a crisis hotline that victims and family members can call simply to talk, ask questions
or request services. Telephone counselors are available 24-hours-a-day, 7-days-a-week.
We dispatch victim advocates, within one hour of a hospital request, to local emergency
departments to provide advocacy and support to victims of domestic violence and sexual assault.
We accompany victims to court and provide support while they seek orders of protection, testify
against their abusers and manage other complex legal challenges.
We provide individual counseling, group counseling and family enrichment activities to help
children and families heal from the effects of trauma.
We provide services to all genders, including trans and gender non-conforming individuals.
The list goes on to include housing advocacy, workforce re-entry services, educational advocacy as well
as vital prevention education services in our local schools. Mutual Ground is the sole provider of
comprehensive domestic and sexual violence services for all of Kendall County and the southern part of
Kane County.
As we recap the past year in this report, we want to thank our supporters for helping us get to where we
are now – providing services for thousands struggling with domestic or sexual violence and its aftermath.
We are asking everyone to help us get the word out through talking to friends, family, co-workers,
classmates and neighbors about all the services Mutual Ground provides, and ensure that everyone
knows that help is available, at any time.
Thank You,
Michelle Meyer

Excerpts
“Dear Mutual Ground. I lived there when I was in middle school. You really did help me. I just want to thank you
for all that you have done for me and my family. We are now living in a house with my sister, brother and my mom.
We are happy now and safe. Thank you to every single staff member and every single person that helped us every
step of the way in our journey to find our way to our home.”
“I came to the Mutual Ground shelter needy and emotionally drained. My case manager went above and beyond all my expectations in getting help with resources, leads, etc. and was always available to help. My counselor’s support and goal-setting gave me the confidence to move forward. I have benefitted greatly from my short stay
there and was very surprised that I could continue to use your services. Thank you so much for being there when I
needed you.”
“Your legal advocate was a tremendous support and I really appreciated being able to have someone to speak with,
as well as having company while I spoke with lawyers. She was amazing at her job and I hope that other victims are
as lucky as I was to have her for support. I will be OK.”
“I love support group and hearing other people speak about what they have been through. I thought I was the only
one, but I found a lot of people go through this. I will refer all abuse victims and their kids to Mutual Ground.
Thanks so much.”
“I am a mother of four beautiful children and have been through a lot. I discovered Mutual Ground after my last encounter with my ex. I was referred to Mutual Ground by the Oswego Police Department and met with a counselor
for almost 2 ½ years. Let me tell you it was the best thing that happened to me and my kids.”
“Volunteering with Mutual Ground challenges me to learn and grow in new ways. Plus, my supervisor is always available – I feel like I have a lot of support. Being a volunteer at Mutual Ground is hands-on and I feel like I am
part of the solution.”
"This program was instrumental in my life. As an adult I became aware of
sexual abuse in my family and sought help after learning about Mutual
Ground through your classroom presentation to my students. Thank you."
