With major renovations completed on the four-bedroom house, Newhouse was able to shelter up to 30 women and children per night, with many of the children sleeping together or with their parent. Newhouse added outreach case management, the Bridge Project (in partnership with Truman Medical Center), and the PRYDE program (in conjunction with Juniper Gardens) which researched the impact of domestic violence and substance abuse on children 3-8 years of age. Newhouse improved available domestic violence information and services in Emergency Room settings. Newhouse grew to 15 full and part-time staff members working around the clock providing any and all services.
