The first and only shelter in Rio Arriba County for victims of domestic violence. Serving ALL victims of violent crime in Rio Arriba, Los Alamos and northern Santa Fe Counties
The mission of the Crisis Center of Northern New Mexico is to impact the cycle of domestic violence by providing crisis intervention with short and long term programs in the service areas of Rio Arriba, Los Alamos and Northern Santa Fe counties of New Mexico.
The purpose of the Crisis Center of Northern New Mexico is:
to provide a safe haven (shelter) for persons who have sustained physical, sexual, psychological violence or a combination thereof without prejudice to age, race, creed, gender, color or sexual preference;
to provide counseling, advocacy, education and other services as needed to accomplish the mission;
to assist persons and families in creating healthy lifestyles; and,
to provide public education and information relating to the nature of physical, sexual and psychological domestic violence.
The Crisis Center of Northern New Mexico (CCNNM) main office is located in Espanola, New Mexico. A satellite office is located in Los Alamos, New Mexico. The CCNNM has been serving the northern New Mexico community since 1992. Given the unfortunate fact that domestic violence and sexual assault are continuing to grow it is imperative that CCNNM maintains a strong presence in the northern New Mexico community.
The CCNNM is a non-profit 501 (c)(3) organization that is funded through various Federal, New Mexico, public and private foundations, and general fundraising. We are also a United Way agency for northern New Mexico.
