Program Highlights

• Kristi House was awarded accreditation status from the Council on Accreditation, a testament to its sound operations, professional practice and continual quality improvement program.

• Kristi House, in collaboration with Florida International University, hosted the first of its annual conference series on the Multi-disciplinary Approach to the Investigation of Child Abuse.
  National experts and more than 100 attendees participated at the two-day conference in April 2004 with a focus on the forensic medical exam.
  (Janet Reno gave kenote at the first conference in 2004.)

• Kristi House was awarded its first-ever grant from the Department of Juvenile Justice to conduct prevention group therapy programs for children acting out sexually. Groups in English and Spanish, as well as parent support groups are part of the program using proven cognitive behavioral therapy approaches.

• Kristi House board members raised a record $124,000 in net profit at the fourth annual Touch A Heart Dinner at Norman’s Restaurant in November 2003.

• Kristi House volunteer Jessica Novak produced “Kids Can Make a Difference” video for preparing children for testifying in court. Starring John Walsh, Judge Marilyn Milian and Judge Fred Seraphin, the video won the Red Cross Spectrum award and is now available in three languages.

• Kristi House clients enjoyed the fourth annual Holiday Party organized and underwritten entirely by volunteers of the Junior League of Miami and hosted by Hotel Intercontinental Miami, which generously donated the space for the evening.

• Kristi House’s Therapy Department expanded to decrease the time it was taking to place children in therapy. Four full-time therapists, a clinical supervisor and a staff psychiatrist now make up this department which provides a service critical for recovery.

• Kristi House was named a fully accredited member of the National Children’s Alliance.

• Kristi House spread awareness of its mission and role to help children and families in need with highway banners during Prevent Child Abuse Month in April.

• Kristi House staff started an emergency needs fund for clients with monies earned from their own staff-sponsored fundraising events.

• Twenty Little Working Girls painted and redecorated three therapy rooms and dedicated the teen room to the memory of Caroline Hartnett.
