SAAFE House funding shortfall faces service cuts
SAAFE House in Livingston warns state grant cuts could shrink 24 hour hotline, outreach, and shelter operations. Executive Director Jolene Miller notes staffing for the Polk County shelter drains funds, with two office staff and six to seven on-site advocates. The nonprofit serves Trinity, San Jacinto, Polk and Walker counties since 1992 and runs 18 to 20 beds, requiring about 250000 annually for client services and shelter operations.
